>>77148Ya, the Flamingo is DEFINITELY a relic on The Strip, especially when you have some of the casinos around it which are rather old themselves, i.e. Imperial Palace, Caesar's Palace, Bally's, and the extremely archaic and dreadful Bill's Gamblin Saloon, and Harrah's.
I've stayed at just about every hotel in Vegas, and in different upgrades and downgrades of each hotel room. But basically nowadays when I go up for work/leisure, I stay at the Palms, Rio, and if Im feeling decadent, Paris, Bellagio, or the Venetian. But however, I will usually always stay at the Flamingo. I know the base rooms are just dreadful. But for an extra 35 bucks or so you can get one of their GO rooms, their like ultra posh, modern, and ridiculously cool hotel room like no other on the strip. I usually spend a bit more and get their GO Deluxe rooms , which face on the outside of the hotel facing The Strip and I get such a fantastic view, and it's really nice and relaxing to watch the Bellagio fountain go off while I just relax in like the best bed ever. Has other neat features like a TV in the bathroom mirror, flat screen tv, electric blinds, and a really bitchin shower.
plus, if you stay in one of the GO rooms, you have access to their topless pool which is sometimes really good or really bad.
