Actually everyone in our class got their own room. We were the class that transition from the Holiday Inn to the Homestead.

The official policy is still double occupancy. However, every class for at least the last month has not been assigned a roommate.

This may be because of some people not showing up for the class. However, NO ONE in the last four classes has a roommate. How long that will continue is anyone's guess.

I've heard stories from people who had to double-bunk last year that it's possible to bribe/sweettalk the hotel desk staff to get a single room also.

The HomesteadSweetHomestead is not great, but it's okay. It's in a VERY unsafe neighborhood by the airport. The hotel has beefed up security so the rash of car breakins/thefts in the hotel lot seems to have abated.

I wouldn't even give the homestead "okay." That place is a dump! Try living in a nasty roach infested hotel for 3 monts, it's disgusting. I always kept a can of Raid next to my bed. It's okay, you get used to the smell of the Raid after a couple of days. ;)
