We evacuated from the west coast to Homestead so I hadnt taken time to read any of the reviews, so shame on me, however for the money it was just fine. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean. Unfortunately the elevator was out of service when we arrived and had all of our hurricane prep, which took 4 trips up the stairs between my husband and I taking all we could carry each time. The walls were thin and you could hear noise from the hallway and other units. Fortunately, nothing was noisy late or too early. There was also a strong smell of food being cooked from other units. Didnt really bother me, but might bother some. Like I said, I booked this in a hurry, so hadnt read that there were no plates or utensils or cookware in the kitchenette, but there is a Target and other stores very close by so we picked up paper plates, papertowels and plastic ware. The other guests and residents we encountered were very friendly and we felt it was a safe area.
