Equus Inn Ocala

10/10 Excellent

"Had a great stay and would go there again without a doubt. Nice staff and a very nicely remodeled property both inside and out. When some places paint the walls, they say they have remodeled, but Equus really put forth some effort and money in their remodeling. Sliding glass shower doors, modern sinks, a very comfortable bed, and a beautiful courtyard. My wife and I have not seen an older hotel that this much time and effort was made in the remodeling. We will stay there again if we pass through this way."
