If you want the Vegas experience then stay at the Flamingo! We absolutely loved our stay here and have nothing but good things to say about this hotel. Oh the mob history here at this old hotel! The staff was outstanding, so helpful and friendly. You can't beat the location! We got really good rates staying here but be careful they do charge a per night resort fee. I think we were in one of the updated rooms facing the ferris wheel. Our room was new, clean and all decked out with the iconic neon pink lights. Loved the secluded gardens outside with the flamingos. They made us feel like we were on a caribbean island not in the middle of the Vegas Strip. Just a really nice place and nice stay. Would book here again in a heartbeat!
