Flamingo Hotel by The Beach, Penang

overall not bad..

This hotel is nice. Not too fancy, but nice. But they could have done better. This is just our experience when staying there. There is no food after 10pm or 10:30pm. There are days during our stay that we are hungry past that time. So we had to resort to ordering grab food or go and and walk to the nearest family mart to get some food. Swimming pool. The timing for the pool is a little bit ridiculous. They are closed mid-day and close quite early at the end of the day as well. During breakfast it was crowded and all tables were taken up. Expect slow turn over as some of the staff don't seem motivated to work. There's also an area where they closed up which can accommodate more people dining in and could also help in dispersing the crowd faster. The reason they didn't open that area is because "they can't open that area". We had to stand around and wait to CHOPE our tables. It's ridiculous to be honest. Is this a hotel or a coffee shop? It will be our first and last coming back to this hotel. Side note, the beachview is really relaxing, might be good for families with children as there is direct access to the beach from the hotel. I always take photos or videos of the places i stay. But this time, i didn't.

Second Time stayed. Really have fun.
