What guests think

Across reviews of Ambassador Inn, travelers describe an older, budget motel with very mixed experiences, noting convenient highway access but also dated rooms, maintenance issues, and widely varying cleanliness and comfort from one stay to the next.

Roaches are mentioned frequently, with several reports of bed bugs, stained linens, musty odors, and general dirtiness, though a minority found their rooms clean. While many guests praise staff for friendliness and help, recurring complaints cite slow or problematic check-ins, wrong room assignments, and refund difficulties. Prices are low, but traffic noise in some rooms and aging infrastructure point to a basic, no-frills stopover.

They do not have a pool they do not have a hot tub. They did not serve breakfast. They don’t have towels in the room. It’s not a normal hotel that you stay in. They advertise on Expedia that they have a pool and hot tub and practice. they do not they do not supply towels either.

The beds were very comfortable. The pool was nice but it needs to be drained and fixed. The pool paint was peeling up in the pool. The grounds guy is always running around on his cart drinking. Told the kids they had to get out of the pool because adults wanted to get in and the said adult never came. Sorry but he is a joke if he is the maintenance man. Better off getting a new person to do stuff.

It’s been a week and I didn’t get my money back. I was in and out of the rooms in minutes after seeing swarms of cockroach’s, footprints on the wall, along with mold on the baseboards, and cigarette smell lingering. Something straight out of a scary movie. I feel bad, the front desk lady was really sweet, just don’t understand why I haven’t gotten a refund yet. Take the next exit and stay at the motel 6 by Walmart. It was perfect

The room and bathroom were filthy especially the bathroom. There was white powder all over around the vanity and mold on the ceiling. There was hair in the bathtub and pee all over the toilet. If it hadn’t been a non refundable room we would not have stayed after we checked in. The bed was the horribly uncomfortable.

please run as fast as you can these are scammers. the hotels is barley functioning and absolutely DISGUSTING!! The complimentary “breakfast” is a bag of stale cereal, the beds have bed bugs and the floors and corners were covered in roaches and we found HUGE roach egg casings. Beyond all of this they also REFUSE to refund anyone who complains about the disgusting conditions.

I hate leaving negative reviews, but this place was so bad. They told me they were renovating, but i think that meant just a new toilet. The bathtub was in terrible condition and looked really old, and had a dead fly in it. There was carpentry wood dust all over the mirror and counters in the bathroom. They did not clean this place after the work. There was a lot water in the floor between the toilet and tub, which they attributed it to them fixing the toilet, but I later realize they didnt clean the bathroom after the last person, because it leaked in the same place after my shower. I went looking for a plug for my phone charger, so I pulled out the nightstand to see 2 small dead roaches behind it. And a live one crawling up the wall the next morning. The pillow case had a black stain on it. There was a lot of yelling outside around the hotel that went on for a few hours. I cannot believe it was so bad. I paid for 2 nights, but cancelled the 2nd night. If I had not been so exhausted i would have left the first night and slept in my car. I was so grossed out. I have never been in a place this bad. I guess i will do more research the next time. You truly get what you pay for.

It's really clean and a nice room except for the darn bug that walked in behind me. Pros - AC and fridge are both cold. Microwave worked well, and the coffee is ready to make in the am. The bed is comfortable and the parking is great. Cons - The bath tub is kinda gross like whoever painted cleaned their rollers in the tub and forgot to wipe it out after. The lamp beside the bed has no place to plug it in. Thats just weird. The entry way into the bathroom is rough, hoping I don't stub my toe in the middle pf the night. Last item - Check in took a while! One person in front of me. I made my reservation and paid on Expedia $68 something after tax However the person checking in right in front of me was charged a total of $48 and some change, she reserved on Expedia but didnt pay that way. Plus it took forever to get hers done. So that part kinda miffed me. Staff was friendly but didn't tell me if breakfast is included or what time it is served, Guess

I pulled over at the off ramp of the freeway to find a hotel. This one seemed good. I booked the room and we drove here. The woman at the desk said it takes about 20 to 30 minutes for the reservation to come thru, so we waited in the car for about 15. She didnt even check to see if there was anything there. We finally get our room. As my mother was using the bathroom, a baby roach runs across the floor, we wore shoes the rest of our stay, since it was just a stop along our drive, we toughed it out. The room looked decent when we walked in our room. The beds were a bit too soft for my bad back but i delt with it. The fridge did work, so we were happy. If you stay here know you get what you pay for.

Door to our room was stuck. When I put my shoulder to it it opened suddenly and my wife fell headlong into the room. No toilet paper. No phone to call desk. I had to walk back to get 2 rolls of paper handed me with apologies. It's hard and painful for me to walk. Bathroom flooring and moldings were roughly caulked and the caulk was peeling and cracked and dirty. The vinyl plank floor looked dirty. The bed was most uncomfortable. We intended to stay two nights but left early. I have not heard from you for a refund for my prepaid reservation.

If you want a literal roach motel then stay here. Thw bathroom had more roaches and bugs than anywhere ive seen before. The toulet seat was broken. I Was there for 4 hours. Even after getting a receipt showing a refund they refused to actually give me the refund that was printed, dated and signed by one of their employees. Also do not use expedia or hotels.com to make a booking. They say they will fight for you but thats a lie.

I had an issue with checking in on Friday, late. Nobody ever called me. I called them the next day at 12p because I had been waiting for their call. They did honor my stay for Saturday. The room was well worn, at least it was clean and I didn't end up with any bug bites but this hotel needs a revamp on every leverl and I wouldn't EVER stay there again nor refer anyone.
