Old school independent roadside motel
Old roadside motel that's been kept up to date in the rooms without ruining the kitschy charm of the exterior. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Location was outstanding to SAP Center and breakfast. Service was exactly right.

I've stayed at the Flamingo many times on visits to San Jose. This is a hidden gem. The Flamingo is a clean, safe, and no frills motel with a staff who cares for your comfort while offering affordable lodging in an expensive area. The Flamingo motel is an excellent value fat an affordable price.
