Location is an important factor when you vacation in Vegas, and the HGV at the Flamingo does not disappoint. It's at the back of the Flamingo Hotel property, located mid-strip across the street from Caesar's. Other walkable properties nearby include Bally's, Paris, Bellagio, Mirage, Imperial Palace, Wynn, etc. If you're in Vegas for a long weekend and want to stay in the middle of the action, you can't beat this location.
The HGV staff were very courteous and helpful. They patiently answered my questions and graciously helped me to find my way around. The concierge was not as knowledgeable as I've encountered before at HGV and Hilton properties, but the front desk service more than made up for that.

Perhaps I was dreaming, but the bomp-bomp bass and the screams from partiers kept me awake until well past that time. The pool noise quieted down much earlier for the other nights of my stay, but the daytime noise was nonstop bomp-bomp bass and screaming. Since I was looking for a quieter place to do some business and relax in peace, I should not have selected this site for this particular stay in Vegas. If, however, I had visited Vegas to party, party, party, this would have been spot-on.
Room Tip: If the noise from loud music and pool parties will interrupt your sleep or daytime activities, don...
