Had a great stay! Super friendly host and those fresh muffins on arrival were a real treat. Shower water pressure was a bit low though, could do with an upgrade.

outdated fixtures

old heating

The Tuscan cheese spread during breakfast was an absolute delight! Plus, we were warmly welcomed with fresh muffins, and the room was spacious and tidy, a cozy retreat for our night away.

If I had to nitpick, the room could use a bit of a facelift – the shower fixtures and heating felt a tad outdated, yet everything still shined in its own way.

spacious, spacious, spacious

I absolutely loved my stay in the Two-Bedroom Family Unit! The spacious layout made it perfect for our family, and having a well-equipped kitchen meant we could prepare our own meals. Plus, the welcoming touch of fresh muffins on arrival made the experience even more delightful.

totally recommend 😊❤️

Had a fantastic night at the Ambassador! Rooms are spacious and clean. The muffins at check-in were a lovely touch. A bit of noise from next door, but overall, great stay! Will definitely be back!

The view of wear and tear in the decor was hard to ignore, with old fixtures in the shower and dated heating systems giving off a tired vibe. we were disturbed a bit by noise from the neighboring unit, which kept us up at times, detracting from an otherwise peaceful night.

Comfortable room, clean kitchen, with thoughtful extras like an electric kettle and cookware for preparing meals during my stay, along with convenient free parking right outside our unit for easy access to our luggage.
