Simple Life Motel

Me and two friends stayed here for 4 nights for a graduation celebration trip. This motel ended up being perfect for what we needed. We were originally going to stay in one of the rooms with a balcony but we were able to upgrade to a room with a kitchenette and a pull out. This was definitely the right move and we would highly recommend doing this for a group with more than two people. The room was clean, quiet and functional. We all were able to have our own bed and space. Although the TV didn’t work, the bathrooms were outdated and the floors were a little dirty we ended up having a great time. I would highly recommend this motel as a place to lie your head at night! We had a great stay.

If I could rate lower I would!

Do not stay here, dirty, rundown, and staff lie!

Simple life and Flamingo owned by same people I guess because we had to check in at flamingo. I showed up at 3:15pm for check in and paid my $50 “incidentals” fee. My room was supposed to be with a balcony, ok first floor I wasn’t upset. But when I got in, the room stunk the lights didn’t work and the place was not cleaned properly like they did a rush through (floor was sticky and the chemical smells mixed with the dirty smells) The door also had a noticeable gap that left nothing to the imagination I felt totally unsafe sleeping here. I waited 30+ minutes past check in because the room was not ready. When I went to the desk- there was no concern just “if you want to leave there’s a cancellation fee”.

Another person stepped in and acknowledged my concerns and said the fee could be waived. I waited patiently as I didn’t want to disturb their other guests and business. Since I used booking.com I had to go through them. No biggie I did it, then at the last minute the lady said “we can show you another room in the flamingo hotel” Where was that when I initially complained?! I might have stayed. Then after all this I was only refunded a portion of my stay. They kept the first night anyway after I was specifically told it could be waived and my incidentals fee is not returned. I have emailed and called a few times with no reply and someone on the phone said “oh are you the lady that called the police?” No I am not so I’m not sure what else they have going on. This is beyond unprofessional and sad! I hope I get my money back!

I ended up going to quality inn right next door for a great price and it was excellent!

Do not come to simple life or flamingo!

I did change my review i was little upset they wanted to charge for 3hr early check in but other then that in the end they did let me check in for the budget friendly price I will say very nice place and the lady was polite gave us extra towels for my kids. Just wish they look at there check in policy I understand there be a charge of 5 hrs early or more but 3hrs you should be ok to do so free 3hrs seems reasonable if room is available.
