First stop FOOD! It was suggested to us to dine at Margaritaville. It was one of the hotels more pop

Recently, I had the pleasure of visiting one of the places most everyone you know has something (usually good) to say about; Las Vegas. Naturally, car rental dollar like most I know that have gone, I want to return, and soon. There are a few things car rental dollar however, I will do differently when I do. Now, I stayed at the Flamingo Hotel which was recommended by my travel agent. car rental dollar Me being a first timer to Vegas, I didn t know where to stay, all I had to go on were recommendations. According to her, it was one of the nicer hotels, in a reasonable price range .
First of all let me give you a little insight about me and how I operate. I am by no means a cheapskate. If I like something, car rental dollar or want something, more often than not, within reason I will pay whatever it costs. Now, reasonable price range for me was about 200-300 dollars per night (keep in mind, this was a weekend i went). Needless to say, I went with the recommended hotel. car rental dollar Upon entering the hotel I thought, O.K. This is nice. High ceilings, clean lobby, friendly car rental dollar staff. Slightly dated as far as decor, but so far so good . When we got there on pacific time it was only 1:00 in the the afternoon, and unfortunately check-in wasn t until 4:00p.m. They had a bell hop desk where guests could leave their luggage and it would be returned car rental dollar to your room when requested. Cool.
First stop FOOD! It was suggested to us to dine at Margaritaville. It was one of the hotels car rental dollar more popular restaurants. car rental dollar Overall it was ideal for lunch. The service was great even down to the bus boy. The drinks were slightly pricey considering car rental dollar the amount of alcohol they actually contain, but i guess that s almost everywhere right? They did however sell pitchers of their drinks, so at that point, car rental dollar they were all right with me.
When we finally got in to our rooms I must say, I dug it. It had like a quirky modern vibe and sort of resembled that of a boutique hotel room. The beds, extremely car rental dollar fluffy, marble topped accent tables, switch operated drapes, seemingly decent quality chaise lounge, 46 inch flat screen with a surround sound receiver attachment . Overall clean cool looking room. Where my issue, if you will, with The Flamingo Hotel comes in is that when you go to visit all of the other hotels and what they have to offer, it almost makes staying at The Flamingo embarrassing.
As far as dining, we ate everywhere but our hotel because The Flamingo only has one upscale (and by upscale, I mean in appearance because I didn t actually eat there) restaurant car rental dollar to choose from . Shopping, was also done everywhere but The Flamingo. I found it very difficult to go from a hotel that has literally any and every designer at your disposal, to our hotel which had a boutique if you can even call it that. Lets just say it had life size posters car rental dollar of Donny and Marie Osmond as their window fixtures. Nightlife, also partaken at neighboring hotels. The crowd, the festivities, the ambiance lapped The Flamingo twice. One night, we joked it appeared our casino was closed because it was so dead.
I realize the tail end of my review seemed to negate anything good I had to say about The Flamingo in the beginning, and for that I apologize because car rental dollar those were not my intentions. The Flamingo is a great hotel to stay at if you have no interest in shopping, fancy eating, or hanging out. They offer nice rooms (the GO rooms) and gambling and if you re there simply for that, then this is the perfect hotel for you . However, if you re like me, and enjoy some shopping, a memorable dining experience and a little dancing, then stay tuned for my review on the hotel that would suit you better.
