Terrible terrible motel/hotel room. The only good thing was the check-in process. After that, it was just a horror show. The floor was dirtiest. You will see it when you wash your feet (black stuff getting washed away from your feet). TV does not work. AC/Heating unit is your white-noise machine. Anyone who walks upstairs, can just get through the ceiling and come to the downstairs room. It was that noisy just with people walking upstairs. The bathroom is on another level in terms of cleanliness and setup. Instead of an exhaust fan in the bathroom, the fan grill was spackled to the ceiling. This means, there is no Fan, and there is no window for the ventilation. No toilet napkin holder. You are the holder; so hold the napkin roll in one hand and take a dump. Just horrible. I have never seen a hotel/motel room this horrible in my 25 years of living in this country. The amount Expedia charges for this room is not justified.

Beautiful Little Blue Gem Motel
My family and I recently traveled to High Springs to lay my Grandfather to rest and decided to stay at the Blue Gem as it was right down the road from his home. It was a very pleasent place to stay. It is updated, very quiet, very clean, great price, and just a cute little place to stay if you ever have to travel to the area. The Florida Springs are right down the road and the little town is really neat to visit. Ive been going there for over 40 years since I was a little girl and I would recommend this little Gem to anyone staying in the area for sure. Next time we visit we will definitly be staying here again:)
