Garden Inn Homestead (BOOK DIRECT & SAVE) - Motel in Homestead - 51 S Homestead Blvd, USA

Nice and clean and a very comfortable bed. The pool was a perfect temperature. There are plenty of food options just a short drive away. The free breakfast was really good and the lady who ran it did a phenomenal job. (She's a Sweetheart) Please don't forget to tip. They are awesome!!!

Positive: Breakfast was good. Location is right on the main road, so convenient to stay when just passing through. Convenient to 2 national parks. Negative: The showers aren't good. It was hard to get them warm, and not much water coming out. Donny Trump would have a hissy fit if he stayed there.

This place is fantastic for the price. The biggest appeal outside its $50 a night stay is the epic level breakfast bar. I've been depending on this free breakfast to survive as my house fell over, blew up, caught fire, then sank into a swamp. I'm still at this hotel as I'm currently looking for a place to live. Take what I'm saying as you will. The short of it is that it's 100% worth it to stay here, but bring ear plugs if you have sensitive hearing. It's like $2 at Walmart, but it's a necessity. Some of my experiences: Since this is in Florida, I'd expect to see like 10 bugs a day that are about the size of a velociraptor, even if I was at a home. I don't know how they do it, but I've seen very few with none in the rooms. I don't speak any Spanish, and the staff have many people who don't speak any English. I know that this is the wang tip of Florida, but the staff gets frustrated when I don't speaka their language. It does not bother me at all though, so iit's no biggie for me. While in line to re-maganatize my card....(which I had to do a dozen times at this point), I was reading their displayed rules. In capitalization, they have a rule against cannabis. I don't smoke anything, soo I just made a note of it. Not but 30 seconds later, the person in front of me takes an EPIC level toke from one of those electronic cannabis dispenser and blows the smoke into his shirt. The staff and everyone saw this.... and it was ignored. Take these experiences with a grain of salt. I'm just sharing. The potentially bad.... The walls are PAPER THIN though... Everyone is apparently having WAY more sex than I am. That includes several rough encounters that are obvious what I think that they are. That includes some that are SUPER young too. Disturbing, really. Thankfully, I am already in therapy. Not only that, but I hear SO MUCH "chop chop chop chop" noises. I don't care about that, though. More power to folks if they can afford their bad habits. All of that said, if you are visiting this location with younger folks or sensitive folks, I highly recommend keeping your TV on at a volume. Pretend that you're the only one here and you'll stay golden, Ponyboy. ...or come here specifically for this. If your hearing is halfway decent, this could be a feature and not a bug. IDK, I'm not going to judge. All of these issues are, ironically, secondary for me, to the worst part about the hotel. The thing that makes me want to leave and never come back... I am currently under a lot of stress, and I'm not sleeping. My hotel room is right across from the pool. THERE IS A NON STOP BEEPING NOISE OUTSIDE THE HOTEL ROOM AND IT IS LITERALLY DRIVING ME CRAZY It's three beeps and does not stop for a moment. I hate it. :( BEEP BEEP BEEP (stop) BEEP BEEP BEEP (stop)  BEEP BEEP BEEP (stop) I can't sleep but a few hours a night, and it's affecting me during the day because it continuously wakes me up. Ear plugs are not working for me, sadly. I mentioned it to the staff, and they did nothing about it for weeks! (AAARG!) I'm not going to remove stars for this as I'm not in the right mental state right now due to lack of sleep, but it's killing me. I hope I find a place to live soon. Anyone have an RV in their backyard that they are looking to rent? I'll end this here. tl;dr: Great for the price. Many benefits, but several large problems that are insurmountable. Worth it for the price, however, as ear plugs are cheap.

Nice and clean and a very comfortable bed. The staff was having computer problems at check in so it took a little while but they found a work around. The pool was a perfect temperature. There are plenty of food options just a short drive away. The free breakfast was really good and the lady who ran it did a phenomenal job.

Positive: The bed is comfortable, the room is spacious, the staff is very kind and tentative to our requests, the water is hot and doesn't run out. I am very happy with my stay. I am between homes right now and its very comforting having a place that fits my needs. Negative: "" Negative: ""

Positive: As always it's the staff! They are always wonderful. Negative: I'm trying hard, but it's such an oasis for me that I don't have ANYTHING but good things to say. There's always groups of guests from Europe and lots of opportunities to share our part of Paradise.

Front staff friendly. We checked in and was given a room. Upon checking the room, it smelled horribly bad. We felt we could not stay. Went back to the office and was told a refund would be issued and no charge to credit card. Left to find another motel. Upon checking credit card statement, $136.60 was charged. Several attempts to contact owner, Paolo, no response. Will now have to dispute with credit card company. Ugh.

Positive: I don't know about my first room since I couldn't get in it. But the second room was very clean. Negative: A nightclerk one of the most terrible ones I've encountered over the last 20 years prepaid.And it still took 22 to 24 minutes to Check-in.Had to walk back to the office twice.To get different keys. She was enjoying Netflix a little too much. Negative: ""
