The photos are very deceptive. The view shown in the listing is not the same as the room being rented.
The view shown in the photos were taken from units on the other side of the building. These photos show a view of the Strip from the living room and bedroom. But in the actual rental, you're overlooking West Las Vegas, which is not nearly as luxurious as a view of the Strip.
The Strip view was a huge reason we booked this place, so we were very disappointed that it wasn't what was shown and felt tricked.
We messaged the host as soon as we got to our room. He replied: "The picture is to show the layout of the room. I do apologize for the inconvenience."
The layout of the room is accurate, but the view is not. When I replied that this was very deceptive, his response was: "I do apologize, we will take your feedback into deep consideration as this was the first time that it was brought to our attention."
The listing says "Strip View", and technically, you can see the strip. But only the quarter-end of it from a side-balcony.
I have no idea why the other reviews didn't mention this. If we knew, we would have booked elsewhere.
Cons:
-Windows were very dirty, which affected the view, and was very obvious during sunset. It hasn't rained in weeks in Vegas so I have no idea why they would be dirty.
-A/C in bedroom didn't work, only the A/C in the living room worked
-Made us put down a security deposit at the front desk. This was strange and against AirBnB's terms and conditions.
-View was very deceptive and not the same as the photos in the listing.
Pro's:
-Very nice stay with a high-end atmosphere. The Palms Place has arguably some of the best rooms out of anywhere on or near the strip. Everything from the lobby to the room itself felt very luxurious. Everything we needed was provided and the room itself was clean.
-Host/the hosts management company responds very quickly
-Front desk along with security is downstairs and available for help or questions 24/7
-Great amenities, many weren't open but the ones that were were appreciated
