Wry terrible experience. I tried to buy a room and the lady cursed me out. I went indie and there were rats, spiders, cobwebs, and dust everywhere. When I called them to complain about how dirty the room was the lady cursed out me and my whole family. Never go to the place!!!!!!! I would give 0 stars but that isn’t an option!!!!!!!!!Rooms: Terrible.Safety: Not safe for kids my child had an asthma attack.Noteworthy details: Wry terrible experience.

We actually were greeted by the rude owner. The hotel was dirty. We ended up leaving and getting another room somewhere else.Nearby activities: Close to the beach was the only positive thing.

We got placed here when we became homeless with no where else to go and couldn't be happier with the outcome! Such friendly, welcoming, warm hearted staff!! Always willing to help out and accommodate!!! This place quickly became our new temporary home & we could honestly consider the staff part of our distant family!!! Love this place!!! Definitely recommend staying here if you are in need of a home away from home feel!!

Great location for the beach. Art, the manager, is great as well as Angel, who works there. Very understaffed so it puts pressure on two employees who, by the way, are very under paid for what they have to do. The owner of the Flamingo and three other motels he owns, should be ashamed of himself. Does not care about his employees or the shape of his motels….or obvious his guests who stay there. I think a call to the department of labor is going to be on my to do list.

Was told one of the best rooms far from it. Had to ask for towels shower was so small could not turn around in it. Price should be lower and parking is not good at all.

Beds gave 2 of us a rash and the staff could care less. The front desk guy had a very bad stench of BO and the same rash on his face. BARF!

Flamingo InnPros - [ ] Location - 2 blocks from the boardwalk. Very convenient to walk back and forth. - [ ] No bugs or smell- [ ] Art - the manager was very nice and eager to help you. Cons- [ ] The pictures online are not accurate. The motel has not been remodeled as we saw advertised. it is extremely old and in need of repair. - [ ] Angel - Art's helper or assistant was ignorant and rude. He sighed and made excuses when I asked for towels. He did not want to be bothered and it was obvious. Loud sigh and "give me a minute". - [ ] Room was beyond dirty. The carpet was stained and filthy. It hadn't been vacuumed or shampooed it looked like ever. - [ ] The walls were dingy and filthy. - [ ] The bathroom hadn't been cleaned at all prior to our arrival. - [ ] There were no towels, soap or extra toilet paper. - [ ] There was no hot water. At all. - [ ] The refrigerator had food in it from prior people and wasn't very cold. - [ ] The microwave was filthy looking like something had exploded in it. Not useable. - [ ] The a/c unit worked but there was a huge gap around it in the wall. We felt the hot air coming in so not very efficient. - [ ] The room door also was not sealed. You can see daylight all around it. - [ ] The pool area was full of trash and broken chairs and loungers and cigarette butts. The pool seemed clean when we arrived but was green the next day. - [ ] The "free parking" was limited. They let people block cars in. If you were blocked, you had to go to the office and tell them to have cars moved. It was ridiculous.We came from out of state to spend time at the shore and with family. We had no choice but to stay there as everything else nearby was booked solid. When we arrived "Angel" tried to tell me he wasn't expecting any other reservations that day and didn't have a 2 bed room ready. Art had him go "clean" a room for us. Obviously, Angel just didn't want to be bothered by us. Art explained that booking.com always overbooks the motel. I was left to feel "lucky" that he could get us a room even though we had our reservation for over a month. For 2 nights we paid $370 and it wasn't worth it. At all. Possibly $150 for 2 nights because of the location but that is all. We will never stay there again or recommend this motel to anyone.

This is the worst hotel in the United States where I have been able to stay, dirty, they don't give you toilet paper, they don't give you towels, dirty bedding, the service is lousy

If I could rate this motel a negative I would. This place is DISTUSTING. This room was most definitely unsanitary. When we first arrived there was little to no parking, we had to park on the street. When we stayed here and there was stains all over the sheets as well as the room was invested with maggots and flies. The bugs were everywhere, and the bed was infested with bedbugs. I felt very unsafe with the fact that our door did not lock and the landlords were peering over our shoulders. The landlords were watching our every moves. Our toilet clogged for no reason every time, our shower barley worked as well as it was so dirty. The room had no toilet paper. The whole room smelt like someone smoked 4 packs in our room before arriving. We paid about $250 for a one bedroom and the room barley fit 2 people as it was meant for. The TV looked ancient and did not work. When we brought our friend in to use the bathroom we got yelled at for having one extra person just for a second however all the other people with parties and a lot of other people in their rooms did not get in trouble at all. I would never recommend this place to anyone, save your money and go to another motel.

Started off in room 16. Got settled in, turned AC on then went to go on bathroom and opened the door to see around 25 flies swarming the whole bathroom. They switched me to room 17. Checked bathroom and did quick look around, all seemed ok. Went to boardwalk for a bit and came back like 3 hours later. Went to bathroom to wash my hands in sink and the sink and wall are crawling with ants!!! I go to lift up toilet to pee and it's filthy with poop. I go to plug my computer in on side of bed and there's a dirty, GROSS sock on floor. I told Art the mgr about everything and he said any hotel / motel in Seaside has a big problem. That's a lie, they do not.

Was there last year and it was nice and decided to attempt to stay there again. Unfortunatly they are closed for the winter, but I can't wait for when they open again. Also Art is the nicest most hardworking manger a deserves a raise.P.S. The person who commented a month ago is out of place I don't know where you stayed but it wasn't the Flamingo in seaside heights because as I said before they have been closed all winter. So I suggest you fix it if you truly believe that you stayed at a closed motel because I am sure that counts as trespassing and breaking and entering.

Pros: location, close to the beach, priceCons: our bathroom had no light. we literally bought a lamp into the bathroom with us to shower lol. Our bed had sand in it. The AC was so dirty we were scared to turn it on & have dust fly everywherewe were there for a short time so we just put up with it. we just wanted something close to the beach and cheap so you get what you pay for. this was also a few years ago so idk if they upgraded by now

This place is truly one of a kind, Snuggled cozily within walking distance of the beach and the boardwalk this place has it all! A beautiful pool, a wonderfully set up room and a staff that would make hell feel friendly! Imagine being able to wake up at 9 am, smoke a cigarette while still laying in bed, and then get up and within three minutes be on the beach!. I cannot believe this hidden gem is as cheap as it is. Truly one of a kind if you’re looking for a great weekend getaway!!
