Go and Have a blast

I have been going to the Parliament House for over 21 years, most of the same staff has been there for many years, the rooms are not that great, but if you are looking to have a blast and let your hair down, this is the place for you. There are not too many rules there, and what rules there are can be bended or broken, no one is constantly looking over your shoulder. Latin nights are on Thursday and Sunday night is the Famous T-Dance, Saturday is generally busier than Friday night at the bar, people walk the balcony at all hours in search of "fun", the pool is open to guests and locals, so you will have a mix of guests and locals at the pool which is never really crowded. Parking can be a problem on Saturday nights even for guests, just dont leave after 6pm and you should be ok on that one night of the week. Black, White, Latin and Asian all come here, the rooms are not the same as a Marriott, more on a Howard Johnson scale, but you do not go to the PH for the decor, get out, meet people, most people who stay or come here are friendly, They do have some hustlers, if you smart you can point them out, but there are a small number of them.

Nice Hotel, Close to the beach, poor service

On Saturday and Sunday of this past week, I checked into the Flamingo, the rooms are in good shape, nice pool. If you have been to the Parliament House in Orlando, you know you can have a ton of fun, not so here, they are very strict about the no food or drink outside of your room policy, the continental breakfast is suberp, only 15 minutes from the beaches. Downside staff is not friendly, and can be downright rude, bar is not packed, no cruising, I was wondering if I were in a gay resort, or a Seventh Day Adventist camp. I will only return if I go back to St Pete, but will not make a special trip to stay there.
