We stayed at the Flamingo Hotel and it's right on the strip opposite Caesar's Palace.
A nice place to stay and the room we got faced the swimming pools.
When we first checked in they gave us an unmade room, and a non-smoking one at that! I was HORRIFIED when i stepped in, for the room was an utter mess!
I can't believe how anyone could have left the room in that state of wreck -- it looked like a very, very wild party had taken place.
Anyway, the reservations officer was very nice, she had given us a dinner voucher of $30 cos' our room was unmade at check-in. And when i saw the state of the room and called up for a change, they didn't have any rooms available.
However, they promised me a non-smoking room (as I had requested earlier) and one with a view of the pools.
The next day, we got our room switch at 3.30pm, and boy was I glad to get out of the first room. I had difficulty sleeping due to the smell of smoke.
But we were very happy with the 2nd room -- it was beautiful and really clean too.
Expedia gave the $49/night rate and Flamingo's own website was selling the room at a much higher rate!
So... it's really worth it!
Unique Qualities: It has very kitschy carpeting in the corridors -- bright blue and pink with flowers. But thankfully, this does not extend into the bedrooms!!!
The bedroom we had was very tastefully furnished :)
And it has its own wedding chapel -- quite beautiful, and its own flamingos! And of course, a few swimming pools with slides! :p
