“Great Stay - Geaux Tigers!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 September 2011

person found this review helpful

Stayed here on the night of Sep. 3rd 2011, was in town to watch the LSU Tigers pummel the Oregon Ducks. I booked the hotel on hotels.com because it was the closest one with rooms available, and my room was only $69.99 on a Saturday night. However, after I booked the room, I got on TravelAdvisor and started reading some reviews. Bad management, prostitues, rowdy patrons, cops, dirty rooms; boy was I scared. I thought about cancelling my reservation and staying at a friends house in McKinney, about 40 miles away from Cowboy Stadium. (Homestead Studio Suites is about 3 miles away). Boy am I glad I didn't. Although a little apprehensive at check in when Judy, the manager on duty, said there was no room showing available for two beds, for which I booked, she fixed that by putting my party in one of the newly rennovated rooms (112). We were the first guests to stay in the room. The room had new bedding, including new beds, a new flat screen LCD, new furniture, new bathroom, new carpet, new counters, new A/C..everything. We also had plenty of towels, washcloths in stock in our room for our one night stay, which were all clean. This was by far, for the money, the best room I have stayed in. I've read a lot of reviews about the room being small, and yes, it was small. However, we stayed in the room with 4 adult men and we weren't inconveinenced in the least. There is also a review or two on here stating that the hotel is hard to find. This is completely false. All you do is exit Ave K, u-turn at Ave J, and it is right by the Cracker Barrel. You've got to be a moron if you have trouble finding this place. We had no problem with hooligans or harlettes outside the room. If I had to find one bad thing about the hotel, it was that the bed was really firm. Some people like that, though. I'm used to sleeping on a comfortpedic. Anyway, Judy you are doing a great job and hopefully many more great reviews will follow mine. Looking forward to our next stay at the Homestead Studio Suites - Arlington for our next trip to Cowboys Stadium, whenever that may be.

“I am a long term guest and prefer to stay at the sister hotel but my choice was made by the price break.”

It is my understanding that the manager is relatively new and has been making many positive changes. He still has his work cut out for him but upon speaking with the local police I was told they rarely have to come by and the officer with whom I spoke attributed this to the new management. Security cameras and mics are being installed and the rooms will soon be refurbished.
Nesley speaks great English with a slight accent. I question the comment about her and the rest of that stream. She always smiles and is very helpful. In truth, the photos are deceiving. This is a negative of marketing. I suspect that after remodeling the online photos will reflect the true nature of the house. I still would prefer Studio Plus but more for location and amenities and because it is only a few years old. I would love an oven and more water pressure.
I can only give a poor rating but do not mean to imply it is undesirable. I would rate Studio Plus as average as I would most new Holiday Inns. For prospective anything above that would probably start at $150-175 a night.

This is the most horrific hotel ever!! The front desk clerk Nesly does not even understand ENGLISH!! My room was completely dirty when I checked in. The maids never came to clean my room. I washed my own towels and sheets. Police were always in the parking lot. Cigarette butts were everywhere. I would not recommend staying at this hotel ever!! If you see this hotel keep on going til you find another one!!

Where do I begin!? The pictures were great but when we pulled in we were greeted by police arresting prostitutes. Our room was missing chunks of carpet, no cleaning service, (we had to wash our own towels), police are never away from the place, LOUD neighbours, drunks banging on your door at 3 am claiming their car has been stolen, a prostitute outside our door (so my boyfriend got to witness her getting picked up) the bed was as hard as a rock. Exposed wires coming out of the lamp. It's just a miracle we didn't have our 2 year old with us! Toilet backs up every time it's used. Leaves have blown into the room and have broken all over the floor, when we asked for a broom the maid (who didn't speak hardly any English) said to come back later. The whole experience is just plain horrid.
