When we checked in the room we were given was one king bed with the pull out option even though we booked 2 queen beds. They said there were none available. They didn't have enough pillows for us either.

On the plus side: - Staff was very friendly - Breakfast and happy hour were excellent - Generally clean - Bedroom was dark as a tomb, fairly quiet Downsides unfortunately outweighed the postives: - Pool was so cloudy you couldn't see the 2nd step, and hot tub didn't work, was ice cold. VERY DISAPPOINTING. - Only one of two elevators working (apparently has been this way for months). It took over 20 minutes to get down to check out! - Lots of shabby areas that haven't been kept up well

We were very happy with our stay at the Embassy. Very clean, attentive staff and wonderful free breakfast, with many options! (Even had gluten free rolls and Bagels- which most places don’t have). One complaint was the having only one elevator operating- we opted for using the stairs, instead of waiting. Secondly, on our Saturday night stay, we returned to our room to find that it reeked of marijuana!! (We also encountered the odor coming in the main entrance the night before). People have their vices, but when it affects me, I’m not happy about that. I don’t think a hotel is the place for any type of smoking!! Build an outdoor smoking lounge to the back of the property.

The hotel is nice and very roomy! However, you can tell the facilities are on the older side with a lot of wear and tear. Pros: Nice and roomy with a good price. The area is pretty quiet, and overall it’s pretty comfy. Cons: Old appliances (they could really change some of the toilet seats). The room did not seem super clean when we walked in. Small amount of dirt on the floor, and the bathroom smells a little weird. Also supplies like shampoo and conditioner were running very low in the bathroom, so it was not enough for 2 people. Swimming pool was nice, but a lot of foot traffic from the pool to the elevators, which made the front of elevator very wet, sort of unsafe especially for older people. Maybe place a carpet there to absorb some water? Overall, it’s a nice and pretty hotel for events and family vacation. The swimming pool got a lot likes from the kids.

The staff we checked in with was very difficult to work with. We arrived a couple hours past check in time and had to pay an additional fee to check in. It was very senseless to have to pay additionally even though we arrived during our stay. I normally like embassy suites, but i would not recommend staying at this location.

Let me first say the positives. I liked the following: breakfast (the omelets were delicious), the snacks at happy hour and the drinks. I did not like the smell of the room when I first walked in the room. The carpets were dirty. The refrigerator did not work, I had to call for repair. When I checked in the woman that checked me in was rude. I asked her twice how much my card would be charged and she finally told me $100.00.

I had to switch rooms because the first room had a smell and the lamps were broke. The room was completely dark. Which was very inconvenient because I was tired after my long drive. Also, the elevators was broke the whole weekend I had to take the stairs. I’ll never start at the hotel again.

I would give this hotel experience a 5 Star rating except that I was disappointed that the king size bed only had one nightstand and I had to improvise to create something that I could use on my side of the bed. Also, the sofa bed does not provide a small table for a lamp or a place to keep a book / water bottle. All else was exceptional especially the service!
