Our stay was ok, we didn't feel 100% comfortable. The amount of cameras is a bit excessive, I have never stayed in an Airbnb with so many of them and not knowing this ahead in of time.
I have never stayed at an Airbnb where the owner was still on the property. (I'm certain that she stays in the garage while the property is rented) this should really be disclosed unless it's against Airbnb policy or HOA ?! I had this unsettling feeling whenever we left that the host would/could access the property through the garage door inside the property.
My mom's husband parked and blocked the driveway the host rang the doorbell and kindly asked us to move, I said of course! Let me get the keys. I didn't want to shut the door on her face, I turned to get the keys and before I knew it she had followed me into the living room without asking if she could come in. So weird, didn't invite her in. It made us very uncomfortable.
Some small issues:
The light in the fridge didn't work and it does not cool very well. The kitchen could use a bit more utensils, cups, plates. There is 1 small dinning table not big enough for 8 guests to sit and eat together. The place is clean, there were enough blankets and pillows. 1 of the rooms windows has no blinds (the windows are very high) once the sun is out you better be too. Not recommended for someone who is sensitive to bright light especially if they plan to sleep in.
There are papers taped all over the walls with what to do/not to do it's a bit too much. usually the host provides a folder with rules & their recommendations... They provided instructions like lying to neighbors if they ask us anything and not disclosing this is an Airbnb, gave me the sense they are not allowed to use this property for this.
The host advertises herself & her CD you can purchase for $10 which was a bit odd and really didn't add any value to our stay.
Lastly, the check out time issue.... I received a message saying check out was at 9AM, I messaged her back and said the website said 10AM (being a verified host, I can't imagine that this was a mistake) where does anyone have a random 9AM check out?! I messaged her back and she said it was a mistake, 10 AM check out was ok... On check out day cleaning lady showed up before 9:30AM while my mom & the rest of the guests were having breakfast. We agreed on 10AM not 9 or 930AM....
The property is about 15 min from the Strip, parking can be difficult at times. The decor is allover the place, doesn't feel welcoming or relaxed. Would not stay here again.
We wish we had a better experience to share..
I hope the host will take these recommendations into consideration and not get defensive or aggressive like in a response she left for someone who left a 4 star review about the toilet and lights not working.
This is not a professional way to respond to negative reviews.
