kind of neat place. living room is seperate from the bedroom. Staff was great and brealfast was the best I've ever had at a hotel and the coffee was good too. Room was quite. Rooms are a little dated but not enough to give a bad review about. Seemed clean though I was pretty much in and out.

First option to stay for me!

It’s never a bad stay at embassy wish they would fix jacuzzi and maybe more pool cleaning water be a bit too thick and chemicals to strong and had room service like all the other locations. But the breakfast is yummy and the staff is great especially front desk those ladies hold it down. Omelette dude on weekends can be a little nicer being the first face for many in the a.m but the rest is great. Room is clean spacious and air conditioning hits perfect.

A little run down. Housekeeping didn’t clean room every day . Was there for 3 nights and paid substantial amount . I asked the woman to clean , she took out garbage and replaced towels . Did not vacuum and floors are carpeted . The saving grace was breakfast . It was delicious and staff at breakfast lovely . Gentleman at front desk was very nice and understanding. I hope they can fix the house keeping issue .

Fountain was under repair, extremely old building and looks hardly anything like the photos. Shower curtains barely hanging on, just over all not good on property conditions. Staff was kind.
