“Friendly proprietors”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 December 2011

As per previous reviewers- we found the proprietors to be friendly and outreaching...Booked by phone, sight unseen and before we were committed to a certain room.. we were given the tour of all of them.. Chose the golfing room -based on the 2 bed and arrangement configuration.. Room was well appointed with all the ammenities..clean and fresh.Very comfy for sitting around .Inherent in the location is the fact that there is a lot of street noise-...traffic, road sweeper, dumpster emptying etc. This particular room could benefit from black out drapes as the plantation shutter shade cannot keep out the light from the dual street lights...Street noise in this room also comes thru the air conditioner unit..Lastly- the proprietor's meowing cat that others speak of...needed to be chased off our front porch several times in the evening.. and again for trying to get out of the rain and into our room while packing out in the am. If I was traveling with a pet that was totally forbidden in the room, it would go against my grain to "share" the local pet. High marks for friendly.. and location..but not for a good night sleep..

Stayed December 2011, travelled as a couple

“Cozy, close to town”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 December 2011

Every room has been redecorated in various themes. We chose the Tuscan room, which for winter, was inviting. The theme details were perfect, soft towels and sheets, nice tub, newer fixtures and very clean. It was hard to imagine what might have been a cheap motel at one time, be so elegantly remodeled. And the lobby is filled with information about the area. This was our Christmas trip and we walked to town, past splendid window displays and the town was dressed to the nines for the season.

“Very nice non-franchise motel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 November 2011

Stayed at this motel with my wife in August. Very freindly owner, has a senior discounted if you qualify. Each room has a different theme to it that wasn't over done. It was very clean and only a few short blocks to the downtown or beach. A very nice place to stay , I would definetly stay there again as I have been there about 3 times already when traveling thru the area.

“Great value, friendly service!”

A co-worker recommended the Flamingo Motel to us, and I'm grateful she did. We only stayed one night but we were very impressed with the room. We stayed in the Tuscany room. Very cozy and clean. I liked that we parked right in front of our room. It is also close to downtown which made it easy to walk to the lake as well as a variety of shops and restaurants. We'll definately stay there again.

Room Tip: Might want to choose a room that isn't facing Sherman Avenue as it might be a bit more noisy tha...
