Loyal’s house has a lot of characters. The place is as shown on the pictures. We had a few problems with the place thou and had requested for an early check out which Loyal was kind enough to accommodate and gave us a refund for the night that we did not stay.
The road to Loyal’s house is very steep and narrow. After we successfully parked our car, we had to carry our heavy luggages up a long flight of narrow steps to the main door. The door is old and heavy and it got stuck a few times. The interior of the house is old but charming in its own way, (if you like to stay in a museum). We were disappointed that the fire place is only for show. The entire house is very dark and the air is very stale. There was a big water bubble in the kitchen ceiling and it was dripping water onto the kitchen floor. The bubble looked dangerously scary as it may burst anytime and flood the kitchen floor.
There wasn’t enough lighting in the house and we had to find whatever candles that were available. The moment we lighted up the candles, we got this feeling that we were in the middle of a scary movie. The living room and the dining room were too dark and it was very uncomfortable to the eyes. I couldn’t even read the map and had to use the light from my mobile phone.
Cleanliness was the biggest problem in the house! The bedsheets and pillow cases and towels were full of stains. It was dusty everywhere and when you pulled open a drawer, you will find some leftover items from the previous guests. Imagine our horror when we found a mouldy diaper in one of the bedroom. There were also a lot of leftover food in the fridge. It was to the point where I refused to open the fridge or any drawers in case I get more surprises. The washing machine and dryer were placed inside one of the bedroom, which made it hard to use. Overall, I would say that this house is not fit to host any guests unless the host do a major cleanup and brighten up the house abit. It is really a pity that such a beautiful house has been neglected of maintenance. The price is definitely not worth it! Go find yourself another house in Vegas!
