Hotels in Gainesville

Not an easy task this close. The best hotel in Gainesville for racing is the Best Western at exit 390. I imagine they've been sold out for a while, as are the traditional racer hotels on Archer Rd (exit 384). Two other options:

On SW 13th St. (US 441 just south of the University), off the beaten path but very close to the track, are some OK motels. There is some parking lot crime in that area near the college so lock up.

Lake City is only 40 minutes from the track and has lots of decent motels near exit 427.

Thanks for the help on the hotel rooms. Didn't decide until a couple of weeks ago that I was going or I would have reserved earlier.

Thanks for the tip on calling Jackie. Hadn't given that a thought...
