Asked the host if it was okay to drop by a little early to drop off our luggage and got the okay. They said they usually charge an early check in so that was nice of them to allow us to check in early. Location was great. We were 10 minutes away from the strip so that was convenient. The house itself was pretty spacious. There were enough bedrooms to fit all seven of us comfortably. Though, there was one bedroom that can get really hot even when the door is open and the AC on blast. I am assuming the fan was put in there for that reason. It would get so hot around the whole house that we tried turning up the AC but it was confusing to use.
The kitchen had lots of space but there were a bunch of random utensils that looked like it hasn't been washed properly? We were a little hesitant to use those but thank goodness they had plastic utensils. We were forced to use their ceramic plates though. There was also a drawer that was filled with to go condiments which was a little random to have. The fridge had enough of space.
The living room was big enough but the pool table was awkwardly in the corner. We wanted to play pool but it was so close to the windows and the couch that we would accidentally hit their giant lamp and the windows with the pool stick. The pool table was not levelled either. Couch was pretty comfy though. It also took us a bit to get the TV going. There were no instructions. We figured it out eventually.
The swimming pool was kind of nasty as there were bugs all over it. They said the pool gets cleaned every Tuesday and Thursday but unfortunately for us we started our stay on a Saturday. We had to clean the pool ourselves with one of the long pool stick thing to catch things on the water. It even had a hole in it so it was difficult to clean it efficiently. Eventually, we cleaned it enough that swimming in the pool felt great. Their outdoor furniture looked like it has not been touched/ cleaned in awhile so we did not touch that at all. Which was sad as I wanted to tan properly outside.
The master bedroom was very spacious although I hate bedrooms that have the bed facing a mirror and literally one side of the wall were filled with mirrors that were also closets. I was too tired every night to care about the mirrors actually. The walls are really thin also. My gf was sleeping while everyone was awake and since the living room is facing one of the bedrooms, you can literally hear full conversations. Master bathroom has a really nice shower. It has great pressure and came with bathroom accessories in the shower. It felt so nice after a long hot day in the sun.
They also offer 2 washers and 1 dryer. We ended up using 2 washers at the one point where it started to flood the floors a little bit. There were a lot of towels in the back of the washer so we assume the hosts know of this. There were plenty of towels to use for ourselves and not on the floor... which was great.
The overall house could have had a better job at cleaning especially a deep clean. I understand that it is located in a desert and that there are bugs over there but it literally looks like that the house hasn't been touched in awhile. Maybe that is why they allowed us to check in early? It was decent enough to get us through the 4 days we were there. But cleanliness is a must for me especially during these times nowaday. I probably won't be going back.
