I had a one night stay in Vegas for a last minute trip and didn't want to stay on the strip. So I was happy to fine Alex's place was available as it seemed to be just what I was looking for. Overall I will say that Alex seems to be a good host that wants to make sure her guests have a good experience. Unfortunatley Alex was out of town during my visit and the person staying in her place (that is right on the other side of the wall from the room to book) somehow missed the memo that a guest would be in the AirBnB and that is what led to my lower overall rating of the place.
Let me start with the pros though. Alex is great with communication and was super responsive during daytime hours to questions and booking. She also made sure I got in the room OK and let me know that a new mattress topper was just put on the bed. And that mattress topper was great and the bed was very comfy. The location is as promised and the room looks like the pictures.
The cons. First off I was dead asleep and at 10:45 pm I woke up to someone knocking on the door (which is a sliding glass door) asking if I wanted them to come in and put the wheels on the heater in the room. Which I most certainly didn't that late at night. Not sure if the person thought I would be awake? Or out? But either way as a single female in a room it was slightly unnerving. Finally went back to sleep to then have the friend (see above) come in around 1-2 AM, not knowing evidently I was in the room, and then it was either the TV or radio going loud enough to wake me up again. And it went on for some time.
I did contact Alex but she was out of town. So nothing was able to be done that night. Alex was very apologetic and did reach out to the person staying in her place (which I know because you can hear conversations through the wall). Alex did offer me a free night to make up for it which I couldn't use since I had to leave, but the offer was appreciated.
So in general, I think staying here would be great if either Alex is home or if the person she has staying there pays attention to the fact someone is in the room and keeps it quiet during the quiet hours.
