Summary: Stayed with my family and the place was fantastic. It is a second floor walk up so be aware stairs are required. Parking is a bit of a hassle but most days we didn't have any issues and the public lot is a very short walk. Place was well equipped and themed in a fun way. Easy drive to campus the strip.

Summary: Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The bedrooms and bathrooms are pretty small. The rules felt a little excessive to our group and silly. It made me uncomfortable that it was required to send a photo of my drivers license and a picture of myself. We didn’t need to contact the property manager during our stay.
