The room was clean, and the staff was friendly. Their idea of a continental breakfast was all carbs. The only protein set out was a hard boiled egg that you had to peel yourself. It was the saddest continental breakfast I’ve ever seen served.

I throughoughly enjoyed my stay at the Ambassador Inn and Suites. The front desk staff were welcoming and one of the staff members Lisa was very nice! My room was clean and fresh, as well as the lobby, kudos to the housekeeper and her helpful sidekick who are committed to maintaining a clean hotel. I came for a bicycle ride so my only concern was the microwave seemed outdated (dial operated and there is no timer or bell notifying you the food is cooked. The refrigerator and freezer was cold but wasn't able to keep frozen food I brought cold enough. The temperature dial I think may have been broken, because level 7 seemed just as cold as level 1. In general my stay was amazing and would recommend anyone making a reservation. The TV was very nice and the bed is very comfortable! Also, I recommend eating a lot Tziki Cafe (falafel bowl and Greek salad) for lunch/dinner (delicious) and Just Love Coffee Cafe (Choco Loco and avocado toast) near the University for a great breakfast, both leas than a 15 min drive.

My room was clean and very quiet on the third floor. I was in Tuscaloosa to visit my daughter at the University of Alabama. I did not eat breakfast. My only problem with the stay was the pot smoking on the third floor. It reaked when I exited the elevator all the way to my room. Once in my room, I put a towel at the bottom of my room door in order to keep the smell out. I needed a place to sleep at night and didn't want to spend a lot of money and this place fit the bill.

First, the cons: our room had a funky unpleasant odor. We couldn't identify it, but with time we became acclimated to it, so it didn't bother us. It's obvious from the lobby and our room decor that this property was once quite lovely. Right now, it's in need of patching up and paint, but that didn't bother us either. Breakfast was pretty meager, but enough for us. The main pros: this is a great location and you simply can't beat the price. We would stay here again.

A no frills hotel, it was adequate. We had to climb up on the bed and reset the smoke alarm every 12 hours to stop the chirping, despite reporting it upon check in. Room was not cleaned as well as it could have been. Bed was very soft but no stains or soiling of mattress or sheets. Smelled fresh. The price of our room for 2 nights was 2x+ the normal cost due to the university graduation.

So to start off the lady who checked me in was not very friendly. Didn’t say much she ask for my id and card didn’t tell me how much the deposit was going to be so I had to ask. Didn’t tell us what time breakfast hours were. She never smiled. So check in needs some work. Second thing was the back outside door that you were supposed to have a key to open was broken. What do you mean broken. I mean like all you had to do was pull the door to open without the key. It was me and my daughter traveling and they put us next to that door so it was nerve wracking. Three there were little pieces of trash around the room like they didn’t completely clean it. But I will say the lady who worked the front desk when checking out was super nice.

The door would not lock and the staff told us to go eat and they would fix it. We said, absolutely not, who would go eat and leave an unlocked door to strangers. The door couldn’t get fixed and had no rooms available. We ask for a refund and supposedly we will get it back in a few days. Always check your door!!

had an overall okay stay at this hotel. The exterior of the property is well maintained, and the lobby looked and smelled clean when I arrived. Check‑in was smooth, and the woman at the front desk was very kind and cordial. She did everything she could to assist me with the issue I experienced.
When I entered my room, I was initially pleased to see that it looked clean and tidy. Unfortunately, the strong smell of smoke hit me immediately, and it made me feel sick. I went downstairs to see if anything could be done, but no one was at the front desk at the time and I had plans I needed to get to. When I returned later that evening, the smell was just as strong—if not worse.
I went back to the front desk and explained the situation. I noticed the many signs around the property stating “No Smoking” and advertising nonsmoking rooms. The staff member kindly offered me a can of Glade, so I asked how much it would cost to upgrade to a nonsmoking room. That’s when she informed me that my room was a nonsmoking room.
It’s clear that someone has smoked in this room repeatedly or for an extended period of time. I’m asking that more care be taken in properly cleaning and deodorizing the rooms, and that the no‑smoking policy be enforced more seriously. This issue significantly impacted my stay and is the reason my rating is lower. I even considered booking a room elsewhere because of the smell.
I hope this feedback is taken into consideration moving forward.

To my surprise when i undid the cover a rose petal fell out, the sheets had several stains and dark smudges all over!!!! I immediately contacted the front desk to voice my concerns about the bedding not being changed after the previous guests, the lady at the front desk than informed me that if i want i can come pick up some clean sheets and change them myself!!
We checked out immediately, we didn’t even stay for 5 minutes!

Unfortunately, whoever stayed in the non-smoking room before us decided smoking weed in the room was a good idea so the room smelled really strong when we checked in. The hotel was fully booked, so we couldn’t change rooms. However, the staff brought in an ozone machine and ran it while we were at dinner. That resolved the problem with the odor. I really liked the addition of a waffle maker! That wasn’t in the breakfast lineup last time we stayed.

This is a clean well located hotel/motel with an elevator. The room was spacious and clean and no offensive \"aromas\". The check in fellow was not unfriendly, but not exactly friendly either, just mediocre.?? The provided office chair was not functioning well as it did not adjust up or down. The bathtub drain was not working well either and when showering you end up in a wading pool. This was in room #212. The auxiliary entry/exit door did not close properly, needed to be pushed or pulled shut. Next door is a Mexican cuisine restaurant. We ate there and were well pleased with the selection, taste and amount of food. Highly recommend. The \"music' is an annoyance and much louder than need be. This is offset by the dining experience though. All in all, would stay there again if passing by that way in the future.
