Flamingo Motel - Motel in Coeur d'Alene - 718 Sherman Ave, USA

I must be honest, the only thing this place has going for it, is the location; which was great. What surprises me is the cost of a night here, that alone should warrant a rejuvenation of the motel. The rooms could be brightened, cleaned, carpets removed, new modern furniture added. I booked here because the reviews were really good, better than some of the other hotels in the area. The part that was really hard to get over was the overwhelming musty smell in the room. This could be a really great place, but it needs some new modern touches. I can't even say that the cleanliness was on par because I was plugging in my phone and behind the nightstand was someone else's old vitamins.. In order to change the bedding, your line of sight would have seen that behind the bed stand. Who knows.. It wasn't the biggest deal to me, I threw them out. It did make me question how well they are cleaning these rooms. The front desk help was great though, and again the location was fab. I don't know if I'll be back but it was interesting! Thank you.

Cute place good location and staff is friendly. Room smelled musty but they just need to get rid of carpet and put in purgo wood flooring or linoleum. Only issue is there was road construction. Right out on the main road and they replaced from 9:00 pm till midnight and the entire room was shaking and loud so we could not sleep. Not the motel fault just wish I knew before we booked as we were tired and cranky aftet no sleep. I do like this place and again the staff was great. Other than the musty smell in the room and the road construction was fine. When we got back from dinner at 9 pm the roads blocked off and street crews made us park across the street at zips restaurant so didn't feel good about car parked across the road. It worked out OK as we didn't get towed but worried about it till we could park back at motel the next day. We will stay here again and hopefully next time room will have non carpet flooring and not smell musty. Very nice people though and nice to have a mini fridge and microwave and keurig coffee in the room. Just wish we had known about the road construction outside before and so weird the city does this till midnight.

Absolutely loved this hotel. Great room for the price. Unique. And close to everything. For the price we couldn't ask for anything more.

Except for the bed being more firm than I typically like, our stay was great! We had the Gone Fishing room. The decor was perfect! Location is perfect to access downtown and everyone there was great to work with. We'll definitely stay again!

Rooms are cute as hell but the overwhelming mold problem is ridiculous

We stayed for 2 days and loved it. This is a classic motel in an unbeatable location that's been immaculately maintained. The themed rooms are very cool, with a lot of attention to detail. The sofa is a really nice touch. Very nice and attentive staff. We'd definitely return.

Cute car-themed room, welcoming to our small dog. We could not get either TV to work, not even the night clerk's friend could help. Kitchen had kind of a bad odor (someone had forgotten to empty the garbage disposal),certainly not a fancy motel, but the bed was comfy, area is quiet, and yes, would definitely stay here again. I love that our pets are welcome! Great location too--thank you for being there.

Very cool little hotel. Each room has a different theme and I stayed in the Emerald Isle room. The AC worked well. Beds were pretty comfortable I have no complaints I would stay there again.
