| - There are good points and bad points about the Flamingo. I will list the good points:
Location: this is on the center strip, which is close to a lot of other hotels (for shows, conferences)
Margaritaville: A nice restaurant with an upper deck view
The garden: The garden has Flamingoes and is very peaceful
The staff: very nice, polite
Cons: This hotel reeks of smoke, everywhere, I used to smoke, so I understand and am not condemning. But when you ask for a non-smoking room, it should not smell like someone has nuck into your room and is hiding to smoke a cigarette. This resulted in a miserable stay (allergies).
If you are catching an airport shuttle in, you will have to walk a block with your baggage to the hotel, back entrance,
There was a roach near the ice machine--but this may be secondary to the fact that someone dumped a salad on the floor, and it sat there for two days--after all, natural selection dictates that you need to do what you can to survive--and this roach was doing what he could to get to that salad.
When the room was booked, I booked a room with a refrigerator, and was provided with a styrofoam cooler.
There was a leak, in the first room . This leak was coming through the light fixture in the bathroom. This was due to a problem with something upstairs. The room was put out of order which meant that baggage and belongings had to be carried to another room.
