Quick overnight. Great location to grab dinner and walk to the SAP Center without having to worry about driving once we arrived. The Flamingo is no drills, but comfortable and met our needs.

Great option for budget travelers
I stay at this motel when visiting friends. It’s convenient to downtown and easy to get to the highway, restaurants and grocery stores. The family that runs the hotel is very accommodating and pleasant. They easily find solutions to issues and don’t look at you suspiciously whenever something comes up. It’s a basic motel so don’t expect any fancy stuff, but it’s clean, generally safe and even includes a mini fridge and microwave. If you’re on a budget, and all the stuff noted above interests you, I highly recommend staying at this motel. I doubt you’ll find anything better for the price.

Priced affordably. A little run down but not uncomfortable. Was given a room that had not yet been cleaned, but the staff responded quickly to assign another room and was helpful during the stay. Several dinning choices within minutes walking. Free parking and a very quick drive to downtown.

Exactly what it needs to be
We stayed here for one night as we were going to a concert at the SAP Center. It was a great location, simple room with basic amenities. The remote was dirty with stuck on food, so that made us question the cleanliness but everything else was in order and clean. It was exactly what it needed to be, just would be nice if they took a wet wipe to the remote after each visitor. That just makes us wonder what else wasn't wiped down. Definitely check out Uncle John's waffle house, kitty corner from the motel for breakfast, it was fantastic!

Comfortable bed and pillow. That about ends the positives. Shower did not get very hot, loud street noise at 3 am, and staff not there during normal hours (8 am) to address key that stopped working so could not use several hours I paid for.
