I moved in on December 1st, after renting the apartment online from Los Angeles... huge mistake. My unit is on the 6th floor facing the security gate. It's like living in a war zone. Nightly, people scream, fight and blow horns until (3:00 A.M. - 4:00 A.M.). Other than being rude, I'm not certain what security does at the Flamingo, nor am I certain anyone knows who lives there. Regardless of what management may say, a majority of the units are rented on Craigslist or Airbnb type websites, so lost, non-Engish speaking tourists are rolling suitcases everywhere. As I've stated I've only been in the apartment 30 days and the experience has been horrible. I asked to be relocated to a vacant unit away from chaos I witness every day and was told it would cost $8,000 to transfer (3 months rent and a transfer fee!! ) Again, realize I have never turned on an appliance in the apartment, nor have I unpacked so no damages have occurred. There is no justifiable reason for management to assess such a ridiculous amount of money. Especially to someone who would be a long-term resident. What you're reading about the Flamingo is pretty accurate. The drugs, police and "escorts" are verifiable. My suggestions to anyone considering leasing at the Flamingo is offered through experience... 1. Do not rent online 2. Visit the property at night and note the noise and hoards of people 3. Management will not assist you if there is an issue 4. There are alternatives to the Flamingo in the neighborhood that are safer and cheaper. message me on Facebook and I'll let you know about my experience and whether or not management allows me to transfer to an apartment in a quieter location without being extorted out of $1,000s !!
