Upon arrival I discovered that this rental was not actually for the "entire place" The host has since updated the description of the rental to include the information that he lives in the "unit" next door. This rental is actually a house with a garage that has been enclosed for a rental. I was not happy to discover that the owner lived in the house and the rental was a garage. The host was very pleasant and offered a tour of the unit. When I entered the unit I could smell a pungent odor of ethnic food. I knew as soon as I walked through the door that I was not staying but I continued the tour anyway. The host explained that there was no stove due to a recent fire. I knew from the original description that there was no stove but I was not aware that there had been a fire. The kitchen had a small table with food storage containers & packages piled up. I didn't take a good inventory as I just saw a mess and the smell was so bad I just wanted to get out.
As soon as the tour was over, I left the keys, locked the door and didn't return. Luckily Vegas has no shortage of hotel accommodations.
The host took no responsibility for the miscommunication and refused to offer a refund but has since updated his description of the unit. This was first bad experience with any Airbnb host but this will be my last time renting from Airbnb. When traveling so far away from home it is important to have secure accommodations. If a host can get away with being this deceptive, I will not take another chance with Airbnb.
