The holiday inn was under renovation, the outside of the hotel was dirty and has bad smell. Lot of noise while sleeping in the room. Hotel is under renovation and it created lot of inconvenience for families with kids.

A number of the construction workers onsite for the renovations occurring on the first level were staying on our same floor - level 2. They were literally screaming, hollering, and partying all night long. Whether they are simply that loud or the walls are extra thin, we could hear them over the TV turned up to full volume. This last until about 1:00am, which was less than ideal because I had a 6:00am wake up time the following morning. Even the following morning - I'm assuming because some of these contractors were sleeping off the party the night before - there was a straight 15-20 minutes of knocking a nearby room door. A coworker was trying to wake the culprits up by banging on their door with no regard for any hotel guests nearby. I understand the convenience of having contractors doing work on the building staying onsite, but there should be a more concerted effort to have them separated from paying hotel guests.

I sincerely apologize for the disturbance caused by the construction workers staying on your floor. Your comfort and rest are of the utmost importance to us, and it's unacceptable that you were unable to enjoy a peaceful night's sleep due to noise from other guests.I will immediately address this issue with our management team to ensure that steps are taken to prevent such disruptions in the future. This may include reassigning rooms for construction workers to a separate area of the hotel or implementing stricter noise policies to maintain a quiet and relaxing environment for all guests.Please accept our apologies once again, and if there's anything else we can do to make your stay more enjoyable, please don't hesitate to let us know. We value your feedback and will work hard to ensure that your next visit is more pleasant.

We stayed one night at the hotel. Check in was easy and quick. The hotel has three floors, so it was easy and fast to take the stairs, although there is an elevator. Shower was nothing fancy which I appreciated. Some hotels modernize the showers so much you need an engineering degree to figure out how it works. Bed was clean and soft. People across the hall had loud music blaring but we could not hear anything in our room. I liked that there was a sign indicating quiet hours between 11pm-6am. There is free parking in front of the hotel but spaces are a little tight for SUVs and trucks. We had a good stay here.

We understand the importance of a peaceful environment, so we're pleased that our quiet hours policy helped ensure a restful night despite the noise from neighboring guests.

Sorry you felt that way. The only reason the price was 135.00 is because you extend your stay through the hotel, a holiday weekend.

Everything was very nice and clean, staff forms, extremely helpful and polite. They had a very typical American breakfast, coffee was delicious! I only wish hotels would start putting two sitting chairs in a row instead of just one. And I am very thankful this chair was not on rollers. My last experience in the hotel, I fell because the chair room away from me.

We have stayed at other hotels in the Homestead Waterfront area and this one was the worst. The front desk staff was rude, the room was super small and dingy. The hotel is basically in the parking lot in front of big box retail. We were given a room on the ground floor with no option to change, so anyone could walk past and see into our room. I do not recommend this hotel. There are better options at the same price point.

The staff was for the most part unfriendly and unhelpful. The nicest staff member was the one that hit me in the head to remove a bug from my hair. They were renovating the hotel, which I was not informed about ahead of time, so there were obstructions that were inconvenient, especially in the parking lot.
