  • Well, took another trip to Vegas this time for the holidays. I have a list of hotels on the strip I want to stay at and this time I decided to stay at The Flamingo. There is definitely some good and some bad. Here it is: First off check in. Holy Mary mother of GOD what a cluster fuck. A million friggin people all over the place, people not sure where the line begins or ends, and like 3 people working to check all these people in. And check out was no picnic but more on that later. It took a little over an hour to check in. I have been to Vegas quite a bit and I have never had this big of a fiasco at check in. I knew it might be a little busy due to the holidays but that is no excuse for the lack of staff. Especially considering that check in is at 4pm and it was almost 5pm. They should have more staff working behind the counter at such hot times to better serve the amount of customers checking in especially since it was the holidays. I have checked in at busy times in Vegas before and have never waited that long. After dealing with the flight and the airport and check in by the time I got to my room I just wanted to relax for a bit. I had a good view of the strip which I appreciated. I have to say I liked the room. It was a big room. It was in the habitat area on the 19th floor. The bathroom was spacious as well. The beds were pretty comfy. They did the job. The TV worked fine. The shower was pretty good as well. The water pressure was fine and the temperature controls worked fine as well. I do have to say that the water coming out the sink, however, had a funky smell to it. I did not experience that with the shower but I did with the sink. The room safe did not work but when I called about it someone came up and promptly fixed it. That was addressed quickly which I appreciated. I ordered room service on the first night because I was hungry but too damn tired to walk around deciding what to get and that food was just ok. I ordered a seafood pasta. Nothing spectacular about it. The delivery was pretty fast and prompt. Overall, I thought the room was nice, spacious and comfortable. Great room for the price especially. The casino is a nice one. I always found plenty of tables to play at. For the most part the dealers were pretty friendly. One in particular stood from the rest and his name was Carlos. He made the games extra fun and he had an amazing personality to match his amazing looks. Him looking so good made it hurt less when he took my money in roulette. :-) In all seriousness though he is how a dealer should act. Fun and friendly. As far as the cocktail waitresses go I guess it depend son which one you have. Some of them would totally ignore you or not come by for hours on end while others made regular stops and were friendly to boot. That was more 50/50. Overall I enjoyed the casino and even though I explored other casinos I found myself just wanting to gamble there. Check out was a bitch as well. Again at the hot button time to check out not enough staff. I opted for the express check out but that still had a long ass wait and was just as big a pain in the ass. When I saw the bill upon checkout I have to say I was pretty annoyed. They will nickel and dime you to DEATH. They charge a $29 a day resort fee. I know all the hotels charge a resort fee but still I think that is a little excessive. I also got charged for housekeeping services which I am in the process of debating right now because I never asked the maid to come everyday and make my bed. They just come and I am not about to pay for that. If I would have known that I was being charged like $20 every time they come I would have opted out. I had plenty of towels and did not need my bed made everyday. The interesting thing is I have NEVER been nickle and dimed like this at another Vegas hotel This is the only time this has happened so maybe it is not as much if bargain to stay here as some might think. Overall I am going to have to give this place three stars. I am not too happy with the extra charges for housekeeping. The resort fee I will let slide because I knew about that but the rest of it makes me wonder if staying here is even worth it. I may just come here to gamble again but staying at the hotel I think I will pass.
