6/10 Good

Close to event I was attending. Poorly maintained. Repairs not performed. Noisy clientele, single payne windows, bath flooring linoleum had a hole with lino peeled up right in the walkway. Tub spigot leaked continously, toilet flush valve always stuck , so I felt it necessary to open toilet tank and unstick the valve so it would stop running. Thin walls. One can hear everything going on outside If you just need a bed to sleep, and don't care about the rest then ok.

there was no air condition in the room. In the evening the sun came in through the window and the room got hot. The stairs to the room were not working so we had to walk around to get to our room. The price I paid was not worth the room we got. Sorry. Armida Soares

Not well cared for
The inn has a lot of potential, but the price is way too high for the condition it is in. The room smelled like fried food, the bathroom was not very clean and had tears in the floor, and the carpet had rips in it. The inn still has a lot of it's original charm, but it's obvious that no one has cared for it.

Perfect fit
My kids and I werent looking for anything fancy. We were up in South Lake for Fathers Day Weekend and just needed a place to sleep and clean up after our day out in South Lake. The Ambassador was the perfect fit for our needs. Will be staying again in the future.

4/10 Fair

The windows did not have blinds to cover the lights out at night and the pool was not available for us. There was also no AC unit in the room. We got a free pass for a private beach which was only a 5 minute walk. I booked through a 3rd party for 2 nights and I got a call from the front office stating that check out was at 11am and that my things were inside the room still. I had to call the third party to make sure that I would not be charged for an additional night even though I paid for 2 nights already. I will not be staying here again.
