This house is in a great location. We walked to MGM casino and it was a quick drive to baseball game and downtown tours. House was very clean and fun. Had a lot of fun things : Basketball, air hockey, laser tag and outdoor area with fire pit and option to use inflatable movie screen on a nice night/day. If you come during cooler weather they have heated floors in all 3 restrooms. Having 3 full bathrooms is a big plus. The only thing to note is the room with 2 double beds in it are bunk beds. It's not appropriate for adults to sleep on top bunk but would be great for kids. The owners were very responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend this place and would stay here again.
