Nice balcony and I love being close enough to the strip but not having to deal with crowds in the lobby. Balcony is an extra bonus. Host is quick to respond to question. Check in was easy and just like checking into a hotel. Very clean and nice vacation rental. Two gyms and 3 pools (although the largest one was not open). No hassle or special arrangements required for checkin. Connected to MGM grand if you walk through the towers (10 minute walk).
A couple of things to note. There is a $30 per night cleaning fee that is not included in the total cost. It is listed in the details but can easily be missed when booking. The dishes are not automatically supplied but available by calling the front desk. Make sure you ask for a whole set if need. Not sure it they have cook wear and utensils if needed.
