This was our first time using Airbnb and to be honest, we were extremely reluctant after seeing so many horrible experiences in the press and on the news. Being disabled makes me doubly nervous about if I'll be able to get to the room, how the host will treat me and if I'll feel safe. Traveling with my husband increases my nervousness as he's an older Vietnam vet who isn't in the best of health. But we worried for nothing because Ghiath was amazing!
The only request he made of us is that we take our shoes off inside his house; I have friends who ask the same thing so it didn't offend or bother me in the slightest. The room is upstairs and Ghiath followed behind me as I went up and asked me several times if he could help me in any way.
Inside the room we had our own refrigerator (dorm room size) and a microwave, in addition to the usual bedroom furniture. The bed is much softer than ours and I didn't expect to sleep well but I slept incredibly well. My husband raved about the bed after we left this morning but he's SOL in replacing ours. The only oddity in our stay was the fact that Ghiath doesn't have live TV, just a Roku; he had a little difficulty with the sign in to Netflix but having Rokus ourselves I thought he handled the annoyance better than I do! Other than that the room, like all of the house I saw, is immaculately clean, the bed is comfortable (the mattress may be soft but it's in perfect condition), Ghiath made sure we had towels, that the small refrigerator would be adequate for our needs, made sure we knew how to use the Roku and after telling us several times to let him know if we needed anything, left us to get our rest. When we were ready to leave he was right there offering help, asking if everything had been okay and if he could get us anything.
Ghiath's house is out of the way in a quiet neighborhood; if we didn't have GPS it might have been difficult to find but I actually love that it's nowhere near the Strip or Downtown and all that craziness. Vegas can be a nightmare for finding a quiet, clean place at a good price and the "resort fee" makes even the most fabulous room price ridiculous. (The resort fee is almost $30, almost double the lowest priced room on Trivago.)
Normally I don't gush over a place to sleep but in this case I am. We stayed several weeks at Motel 6 and several months at a Siegal Suites property and I would choose Ghiath over either of them, even if they were free! You really can't do much better than staying at Ghiath's house.
