Top hotels in Historic District
Equus Inn Ocala
Amazing value at the Equus Inn. Equivalent rooms in Gainesville were going to $700 per night during graduation. Clean rooms and well appointed. Breakfast pretty good. Usual stuff like hot scrambled eggs, ham, pancakes, waffles. Would stay again if Gainesville sold out.

Howard Johnson by Wyndham Ocala FL I-75
Breakfast is a Waste and the woman who stares at you is ridiculous. Room was fair but swept well but I took to baths and the floor turned my feet black. Parking is ok.
