My family and I have stayed at the Flamingo 2 different years and
love it there BUT last time (July '06) check-in at airport was
terrible!!! Did not get rooms we had asked for (had booked OCT '05)
would not put our daughters in room next to us (they were put WAY
down the hall and were harrassed by 4-5 drunkenR louts running the
halls yelling when they left their room on two occasions. They didn't
tell us till we got home as they knew we would have been upset.
We ask for pool view but no !!!!! we got strip. Seemed anything I ask
for, I got opposite. Rooms were badly in need of a mighty hard scrub
plus updating but we could live with it for 10 days except the ONE
time I ask for housekeeping, they never touched the bathrooom !!!!!
And believe me, I can make beds better than that. But all in all, we
plan to go back to Flamingo again this July as we do love pools &
grounds, location and price. What we can do without is that snippy,
bored, disinterested, totally rude young gal at airport check-in !!!!!!!
Regardless, I would still recommmend the Flamingo but do not expect
air & graces nor fancy-dancy. For the money, they are great (especially
IF you get what you BOOKED !!!)
