The Flamingo Apartments

It's a great place to live, pretty near to the lake!

The facilities are always clean, the manager and the assistant are very nice people, and they are attentive to any concerns.

This place has gone down hill year after year! Don’t bother pay a little more and live better

I would never recommend anyone to move here. Below standard unacceptable for the money being charged

If you like being lied to while being accused of lying, this is the place for you! If you like people banging on your door with eviction notices when you've paid rent every single month, this is the place for you!

This is not a good place to live! The manager is unprofessional!

Same day approval process, safe packages, pool, gym, laundry facilities, walkable neighborhood, & perfect location! I'm so glad I used my discernment and picked this complex for my first apartment. Thank you, Daarina & TLC!

The Flamingo Apartment sits right off the lake giving you a view of the sun-rise and a few feet away from the beach and fire pits. The Flamingo is around the corner from The Museum of Science and Industry. Public transportation is 1-3 blocks away .There's also a mini gym ,washer and dryer and secure postal boxes to insure that you always get your package.

This is a great place to live! Beautiful location with easy access to public transportation, parks and shopping.

The Flamingo is in a beautiful location with plenty options suiting your taste. Maintenance responds promptly and management follows up voluntarily. I enjoy being steps away from amenities, entertainment and shopping. Security is efficient and meticulous about entry. You’ll have to tweak the imperfections of apartment interior , but pros outweigh the cons.

The Flamingo apartments are cozy apartments close to the lake front with washer ,dryers and a work-out room.. The Flamingo is also conveniently located near public transportation..

I’ve lived here for over a year and leased my apartment site unseen. I moved in from out of state and could not be happier with my choice. The rent is reasonable, the apartment is clean, never had a pest issue of any kind, and anything I’ve ever needed has been addressed immediately. There are excellent restaurants within walking distance, the beach is right there, and there is a lovely pool which only one other big building nearby has.

I love the area and the convenience of my apartment home at The Flamingo. I couldn't have made a better choice.

The Flamingo staff is professional and efficient and responds expeditiously to tenant concerns.

Flamingo is a very pleasant community with beautiful and comfortable apartments. The common areas are always clean and the management is always willing to help. The building operates very well.

The Flamingo is an awesome place to live. It’s located steps away from Lake Michigan and the Museum Of Science and Industry.There’s also a variety of public transportation to move you conveniently around the city.

The office staff are very professional, even when the Property Manager has coverage, the experience is still exemplary. The office staff makes it a point to follow up after any issue II’ve uploaded to the portal in order to ensure satisfaction. The maintenance staff is both timely and efficient. They came to address my concern right away. I appreciate the level of service I receive since I’ve resided at The Flamingo.

The Flamingo Apartments is a professionally managed rental property that cares about the residential community and its upkeep. The staff is efficient and timely in addressing any and all concerns. They are always kind, professional and attentive. I’d recommend The Flamingo as a wonderful apartment home w/ awesome amenities.

The Flamingo has really great amenities (especially in the summer time pool, grill, etc), and the units are high quality for an affordable price.

The Flamingo is a great place to reside. We have awesome amenities and the most efficient staff one could ask for. It’s home.

New washers and dryer’s, the gym is and the pool is nice. The staff is professional and I have never had a complaint I’d like to thank them for helping me.

From finding an apartment, the application process, and then moving-in Rachel was absolutely amazing. Moving from another country, she made everything seamless. Cannot beat the proximity to the lake shore and beach!

The timing and urgency of maintenance issues are always resolved to a good standard

Excellent management and they take care of any issues in a timely matter. Would recommend to anyone

The Flamingo apartments are conveniently located in the Hyde Park area. The management team and support staff are very accomodating. This is a quiet, clean and safe building. The Flamingo apartments are minutes from the lakefront.

The staff is amazing! They are personable, attentive, timely and professional in practice. It’s made my transition a smooth process, to say the least. Efficient customer service still exist.

It’s an awesome resident community w/ many conveniences and amenities, including a great staff.

Great viewing of the Lake Michigan and walking distance to the lake. Good also walking to the bus and stores.

If you have practical needs and love lake front living, it really is a nice community to live in.

The entire laundry room has been out of order for more than a week. I have almost never seen a day when all the machines are in working order. Most often, there are only one or two machines working. The radiators sometimes sound as if someone is hitting the pipes with a metal hammer at full strength, in the middle of the night, and I would not be surprised if the sound level violates the Chicago noise ordinance. Otherwise, the building is nice and management is helpful. But why does it take so long to fix the laundry machines?

The Flamingo Apattments are great cozy apartments steps away from Lake Michigan. You can enjoy a view of the waves clashing against the shore line ,catch a glimpse of an early vivid sunrise ,or a early jog on the beach.Come for the convenience of public transportation.Stay for the peace that you deserve away from every day life.

I enjoy living at the flamingo. The building is located perfectly within walking / biking distance to my favorite Hyde park shops and restaurants, management is friendly, professional and kind, my neighbors and building community are kind, and the convenience of having a gym and 24 hour laundry room cannot be beat, especially in winter.

Although not everything in the building is at a high standard, we have a very professional and committed management that provides help and offers solutions to every problem.

I have had some bad experience at Flamimgo,my first year was very good.The second year my apartment flooded from my toliet,no one cleaned my rugs or my furniture. Every time there was a water flood in your hallway downstairs I called you all because I was on my way to work from your bathroom in the lobby. No matter where I lived I have always been a good tenant. Never had any problems.

I have been a resident of Flamingo for 15 years, and with regrets, due to health and age, I will be moving in with family soon. However, before I go I want to say that my overall experience has been so rewarding. Specifically, the Flamingo has hit the jackpot with it's present leadership Passion, and her supervisory team Jennifer, and Kevin. I want to say to Kevin that Sam of your maintenance team is the best in the business when it comes to solving issues via fixing what's wrong.. How he manages is beyond me, with so many apartments and daily requests. A final word on the newest addition to Passion's team, Mr Bey, the office manager. His skills in managing the day-to-day operation of The Flamingo are to be commended. Mr. Bey is hands-on with each issue ,and gives each person respect; I have witnessed this up close and afar. Thank You Flamingo!

Property is nice. Great location and views from the apartment units. Staff is friendly and attentive. Cleaners always present in the lobby cleaning the property. Older building but over all very nice.

Apartments are nice, big, great views. Leasing office are professionals and on site so its convenient when you need things done. Cleaning lady is in every morning at 7am so thats a relief to know the property is being cleaned often. Door staff could be more professional.

The community is very helpful and friendly, I feel comfortable here.

Excellent living facility. Extremely neat and clean. Quiet and friendly environment.

Great apart ,the area is pretty safe, The view of the lake is peaceful and calming.As well as the lake just a few feet away.Or going for a ride on the bike path.

I love living in a vintage high rise and I love the Flamingo's location!

It is a good location; the area is reasonably quiet.

Excellent place to live. Courteous and professional staff members.

The Flamingo Apartments is an excellent residence to live in. I've lived here a very long time and highly recommend it to anyone.

The building was ok when I moved in here in 2019. But a year later, the caliber of people that had moved in is horrible, the marijuana smell in the hallways and there needs to be new washers and dryers in the laundry room. Honestly, I wouldn't recommend anyone here.

Very excellent building! Well maintained and professional. A nice quiet residence. Keep up the incredible task of maintaining this building. Job well done.

Great building, newly finished apartments & affordable rent.

The Flamingo have really improved alots from the first time I moved hear.Now I love our new management.They are friendly and when you knock on the office door they smile and say come.very nice and friendly.Thank you for changing your management.God Bless.

I’ve experienced many minor issues, name not being added in the call box for months, reporting washers and dryers as malfunctioning, trying to get the alarm to stop when someone opens the fire escape door in the middle of the night wherein I had to make repeated efforts to call and/or email before anyone acknowledged and sometimes resolved the issue. The laundry machines are frustratingly unreliable (spin cycle malfunction so clothes are sopping wet, items melting in the dryer) but they work sometimes and allegedly are getting repaired more. I put up with these issues for the upsides of living here. The Flamingo is at a great lakeside location with good bus options and bikeshares. Also the parking is free, if you can find it, which is nice for friends and family. Seven weeks ago I reported bedbugs in the unit. Of course it’s difficult to determine the origin of bedbugs, but when pest control came to inspect many bugs were found in the crown molding suggesting they are coming from a unit above. During these seven weeks I have being doing daily vacuuming and laundry, and also experiencing stress, itchy bites, and sleep deprivation. Last week I asked the building for a laundry stipend, running things through the dryer will kill any bugs, and Patrick very generously said they could take a couple hundred dollars off of my rent. This felt very reasonable to me as I was picking up great personal expense (and funneling money into the building through its laundry machines) to do my part to resolve a building issue. I followed up on that today (my rent being unchanged) to find a different person in the office who said they absolutely would not do that, and that there was really nothing they would do other than bring in pest control. They are legally required to do this, but I’m still finding bugs after weeks of treatment. It feels like a bare minimum approach. I caution against renting from the Flamingo, at least don’t expect them to resolve building related problems in a compassionate or timely manner.

A very wonderful place to live. A very professional and friendly environment. Very clean and well kept together. I've lived here many years and would recommend it to anyone to live here.
