This Motel was given a high rating, interior clean. The light in bath over the sink was very dim, the television had just one channel and (No Signal) on screen. Other than that, it was okay.

Cute little cheap stay. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Great quick stay in San Jose for one night. Rhe toom was roght by the stairs and the walls are paper thin so the noise was tough. But overall was worth the vost compared to more expensive hotels by SAP Center.

The folks at the front desk were accommodating and friendly. I’ve stayed here thrice now and have always been satisfied. With the free parking, good neighborhood coffee and dining options, being walking distance to the Shark Tank, and being able to access downtown San Jose with only a twenty minute walk, this place is my go-to spot.

No one ever checked me in. I got charged for something I didn’t even get to use. Horrible definitely wouldn’t recommend. Had to pay $300 at another hotel last min

Really liked that it was a family operated hotel. Very nice manager? with school age girls which made me feel safe in the area. They also recognized us at the hotel a few doors down when we walked by - not sure if they manage both. Comfortable bed - microwave and fridge a plus for the price. Room could have been a little cleaner. Rooms need to be updated but not a biggie for the price. Overall a great stay! Great location! My only recommendation would be to clean behind and around the furniture - more thorough cleaning can sometimes make a difference.

I stay at this motel when visiting friends. It’s convenient to downtown and easy to get to the highway, restaurants and grocery stores. The family that runs the hotel is very accommodating and pleasant. They easily find solutions to issues and don’t look at you suspiciously whenever something comes up. It’s a basic motel so don’t expect any fancy stuff, but it’s clean, generally safe and even includes a mini fridge and microwave. If you’re on a budget, and all the stuff noted above interests you, I highly recommend staying at this motel. I doubt you’ll find anything better for the price.

Quick overnight. Great location to grab dinner and walk to the SAP Center without having to worry about driving once we arrived. The Flamingo is no drills, but comfortable and met our needs.

Priced affordably. A little run down but not uncomfortable. Was given a room that had not yet been cleaned, but the staff responded quickly to assign another room and was helpful during the stay. Several dinning choices within minutes walking. Free parking and a very quick drive to downtown.

We stayed here for one night as we were going to a concert at the SAP Center. It was a great location, simple room with basic amenities. The remote was dirty with stuck on food, so that made us question the cleanliness but everything else was in order and clean. It was exactly what it needed to be, just would be nice if they took a wet wipe to the remote after each visitor. That just makes us wonder what else wasn't wiped down. Definitely check out Uncle John's waffle house, kitty corner from the motel for breakfast, it was fantastic!

While an older property, the location was great as was headed to Sharks game, easy/safe walk. Property and room was clean, bed was comfortable, all in all a positive experience.
4.0
Comfortable bed and pillow. That about ends the positives. Shower did not get very hot, loud street noise at 3 am, and staff not there during normal hours (8 am) to address key that stopped working so could not use several hours I paid for.
1.0
The mattress needs to be changed. It reeks of urine. Room service is pouring bleach in the toilet to mask the smell of the mattress. Also, the hotel has an issue with homeless people sleeping and or congregating near the rooms. I found this out when I left the hotel at 5 am to see a homeless person nearby drinking water with sugar in it from the cart that cleans the rooms
4.0
Whenever we attend a concert at San Jose Civic we stay here. It’s a short drive to the venue. The rooms are very clean and friendly staff.

Excellent value for money motel , near to main street but quiet at nights and only a 15 minute walk from Diridon station for Caltrain/Amtrak. Friendly helpful owners , a safe and clean area with huge book shop nearby and a large supermarket 10 minutes' walk. We enjoyed our 2-night September stay and would return if visiting the area again.
