A wonderful place worth the value. I stayed here with my colleagues for a conference in Mandalay Bay, and we found this place to be perfect for our needs.
Xu’s place is less than a 5-10 minute drive to the main hotels of the strip (and only about 10 minutes to Mandalay Bay, where we spent most of our time). It’s also conveniently located very close to Las Vegas freeway, which was great for when we needed to get out of and into the city. With it being in a gated community, we also never worried about security, and for our rental car there was always parking just outside.
The airbnb came stocked with just about everything we needed, especially kitchenware and extra blankets. The bathrooms were fine, and the beds were incredibly comfortable (I always had a good night’s sleep!).
It’s a lovely place; my colleagues and I remarked over and over how coming back to it after a long day on our feet always felt relaxing, and we thought of it as our home away from home.
As far as amenities, my colleagues and I did not take advantage of the pool or gym (we visited in December and it was a bit too cold to use the pool), but we did take a quick look and the amenities did seem to be worth using if you have the time.
One caveat is that there was construction going on around the outside of the community, which made it slightly inconvenient getting in and out, but I would imagine this is a temporary matter and it did not detract from the overall quality of the place itself. Another is that there is a train track relatively close to the Airbnb; it was infrequent and it never ever bothered myself or my colleagues, but just something to note.
Overall, it was a great stay, and we would definitely choose to stay here again.
