There are many options available in the area, but this property had the best ratings over others by a lot and that was the reason why I picked it. This is an older property, but very well maintained and loved. Rooms are upgraded and spotless clean and the owner was friendly and accommodating. Rooms could use some touch up paint job that is about. I will definitely stay here again.

we stayed here at the Flamingo Inn before, and it was "OK". old looking but clean. this time was awful !! if we weren't so exhausted and i had booked through the property instead of Expedia I would have turned around and left after seeing our room. The bed linens were clean and room smelled ok but the shoer had a huge clump of someone's hair in it and the bath mat looked like it was never cleaned, the bathroom door was rotted and dirty looking, the toilet seat was gross and numerous other issues. we left a day early, but because we booked through Expedia we lost that money for 7th day.

I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt based on it being a motel but had higher reviews than other hotels nearby. But the photos and reviews were very deceiving. The room smelled moldy and the upholstery was skeptical and looked dirty. Even though the few staff i saw were nice..the experience was yuck.

Not a very good place to stay, should have spent more money to stay elsewhere. AC not on in room, then turned on but not able to cool down room, never stopped running but wasn't putting out cold air. Couple holes punched in walls and bathroom door, lousy shower head, no pressure.
