Our room smelled of smoke even though it was listed as non-smoking. There was also no soap or shampoo at all in the room when we arrived - not even hand soap to wash our hands. The bathroom had random holes in the wall and the vanity mirror was falling off the wall as it only had one screw, not 2. The back of the bathroom door looked like some art or wallpaper had been ripped off - there was just a sticky film left on it.
Also, we paid extra for a strip view, but our particular room had a very limited view (we were in the "habitat" area). We could only see directly across the street - not north or south.
The elevators also took a very long time and the key card scanner didn't work in half the elevators.
For the positives - All the staff we spoke to were very friendly and helpful. It was a busy weekend in Vegas (EDC), so that was probably why the soap wasn't stocked. The grounds of the hotel are still very nice and the pool are is nice and seemed quite clean given how busy it was.
Overall, we have stayed at the Flamingo a few times. When we were here 10 years ago the room we had was AMAZING, so we were pretty disappointed this time. Though we were loyal Flamingo guests due to the location on the strip and the price point compared to other nearby hotels, we will likely look for other options next time we visit Vegas.
