"We stood on the older side of the hotel, but it was actually very nice and still on theme. The newer rooms are very minimal, and lack the vibrant energy you come to The Flamingo for. I’m grateful we had the room we did. The room was clean and we had a “city view” room which still had a great view of the Bellagio fountains! I will say, it took about 3 tries going from floor to floor to get ice for the ice bucket, and the hot water in the shower was pretty much non existent. The family pool area was so small, wish it was a little bigger because the pool was so packed for a Sunday afternoon. We rented a family day bed from 12-5 and had a great time overall. The servers were nice and attentive. Lastly it was so easy to check in and out — skip the line and head straight to the self check in. "
