The Ambassador Inn

This property needs to be completely torn down. Moldy rooms, faulty air conditioning, bathroom sink was hanging off wall, bathroom tiles cracked and moldy, bathtub basin completely moldy, I had to clean it when we got there. This place must pose a health hazard for humans and animals. Bugs stuck to the walls, mold, parking situation is scary at best, remote control for tv was missing backing and didn’t work, fridge was yucky. It was close to boardwalk, only plus about this property, and the rooms they display are not the rooms at the ambassador, neither is the pool, that’s a sister facility. Shady marketing as well.

We had to beg for towels and bedding. Property seems to be lacking basics. Room was typical for an older place. Room was clean, just dated. And we expected that. Biggest problem was towels and bedding. Very close to beach and boardwalk and that was what we cared the most about. Parking was easy, only one car allowed. Bathroom window is in shower without a curtain and looks directly into the property next door. Two teenage girls hated that,put a towel over the window. Spot was perfect if you want to be close to the action. Nice porch too.

The check-in was easy. The staff was friendly. It is located 2 blocks from the waterfront and boardwalk. The room was small but clean. There are no elevators, stairs only. The building is old, but maintained. This is a 2-star facility, but is comfortable. Restaurants are nearby. Parking is limited, but we had no problem with it.

Room was ok. Nothing great, but not terrible. No pool on site, no balcony, no ice machine.

There is no elevator access to the 2nd or 3rd floors. We had to carry our luggage up 2 long flights of stairs. There was only 1 available electric plug in the room. Our fridge & microwave didn't work until the fixed the electrical problem. No ice machines available on the property

You get what you pay for. Just for any one's sake, there is no elevator at the Ambassador Inn so ask for 1st floor if you can't do stairs. But for my sake I'm not really complaining. I paid $87 a night and comfortable bed and shower.

Was not advertised there are no elevators. Advertised there was a pool was not one. Rooms did not have locks on inside of doors. Mold and broken tiles in bathrooms and lamps in rooms. Added service fee that was not put on booking site. No phones in rooms.

We stayed there Aug 20th to the 23rd. The two young women at the check in desk were very friendly, helpful and kind. The hotel was very quaint it reminded me of a B & B but without the breakfast. It was close to the boardwalk. Room was nice and clean. Pool that was advertised was not on location but at a sister hotel a block away which wasnt so bad to walk over there. All in all it was a nice place to stay.

The pool was THREE BLOCKS AWAY

We get to the room and there is a unlit cigarette behind the bed and a blood-stained rag in the bed! The bed was too soft at one end and hard on the other. It is like the bed had to be flipped but we did not flip it. The bathroom is severely tiny and the sink is in the room and not in the bathroom. There is only 1 electrical outlet in the room and no hair dryer. The hotel has 2 pools but they are diagonally across the street and you need to go into the hotel where the pool is to let them know you are staying at the Ambassador Inn in order to use the pools. The pools are small. There are no elevators! The only good thing about this place is the staff is friendly and helpful.

Property was shameful. Bugs everywhere. Spiders in bathroom, ants crawling on the walls, flies in the room and dead flies in the windowsills, and a huge disgusting slug 🐌 on the bathroom mirror. It was so disgusting I was afraid to sleep. To top it off there was so much noise coming from the room upstairs that I had to call the office. I finally fell asleep but I’m so glad we are leaving here this morning.

This was the worst motel/hotel I’ve ever stayed in. They never communicated when the room was ready. When I finally got to the room it was very dirty. The bathroom was never cleaned. There was hair stuck to the shower wall. They only gave us 2 towels for 4 people and there was no hair dryer. I walked back down to the front desk (Which was 3 floors down and they have no elevator). I explained the issues and she assured me they would fix the issues. We went out for the rest of evening and when we came back the gave us the towels and the hair dryer but never cleaned the bathroom. I even found trash under the bed. I would never return or recommend this place to anyone.

We loved the area… very easy to get around for what we were needing. My biggest problem was cleanliness of this place. Yes we expected OLD we didn’t expect to be in a 5 star hotel.. But there was old vomit on the bed skirt of one of the beds and night stand. That is really disgusting. Shortages of towels and washcloths was another issue although the staff was friendly-ish it would have been nice to know ahead of time and we would have brought our own. Also there was an extra charge for the use of gym and pool of which we never saw or even wanted to have used even if we did see it just didn’t like that charge without even asking if we planned to use them

This was the worst motel/hotel I’ve ever stayed in. They never communicated when the room was ready. I explained to the front desk I have a special needs grandchild and I would like to have the room ready as soon as possible. They never called or text to let me know.

This place is dirty. We had to book another hotel and they wouldn’t refund the money. Bugs and stunk like mold. Floor is u even and the sink isn’t even in the bathroom

Staying at the Ambassador in OCMD was a complete disaster, with problems in every aspect of the room. Bugs: The room was infested with insects. Drain flies were constantly coming out of the pipes and flying around. There were dead bugs smeared on the walls and stuck in the ceiling lights, adding to the overall filth and neglect of the room. Cleanliness: The entire space was filthy. Dust and dirt covered every surface, and it was clear that nothing had been cleaned properly. The couch was stained, grimy, and smelled awful. To make matters worse, there were mysterious smears on the walls that I didn’t even want to think about. Smell: The odor in the room was overwhelming. The couch had its own foul smell, but the entire room reeked of weed, making it impossible to escape the stench. Safety Concerns: There were major safety hazards, too. A floor lamp had a light bulb barely hanging out, which seemed like a fire hazard waiting to happen. On top of that, the floorboard leading into the bedroom was rotting, and I felt like it could give way at any moment. Health Issues: The worst part was the physical reaction I had after staying there. I woke up with my eyes swollen shut and my entire body itchy. Even my ears were red and swollen. I’m not sure what was in the bed or room, but it clearly caused a severe allergic reaction. For the price I paid, I expected at least basic cleanliness and comfort. I was met with a room that was not only disgusting but also a health hazard.

Upon entering the room, we were hit with an overwhelming mold smell that was even noticeable from outside the door. The floors were weak and seemed like they could collapse at any moment, particularly near the back room. To our surprise, there were slugs crawling on the bathroom walls! Additionally, there were suspicious stains all over the pull-out sofa. We quickly left without unpacking our bags.

The first room they gave us was filthy. Beds not made. Sand in shower. The next room the one mattress needed replaced.

Liked the walking distance to the beach and boardwalk. The rooms were small but OK, beds neat and clean. we did't mind that the pool was in another hotel, because we liked pool side bar and grill. I did't like that important things to me were missing in me and my daughter's room like light bulbs in lamp, cups for coffee pot. things were, stained worn or broke. Property poor but neat.

This hotel had beds that were comfortable enough but it was hard to sleep with noise outside, music and motorcycles revving their engines, and the people next door played their TV very loud. If you just want to be close to the beach, then this work. If you are looking for comfort and a more updated hotel, you should look elsewhere.

Room was supposed to be ready at 4. It was not. Beds are very uncomfortable. Bathroom is very small. Sink is on the other side of the room. We were on the 3rd floor. Unaware when ordering the room. Never cleaned the room the second day. Asked for towels. Close to the beach

We stayed here for 5 days/4 nights. We were on the 3 floor with no elevator. We had no wifi in our room the entire stay, even though we complained to the staff multiple times about it. The pool that the website said they had was at a different hotel entirely, and that hotel was a block away! Only free outlet was right above the sink. We had ants coming into our room by the window next to the sink, which was in the room and not in the bathroom. Very disappointing hotel experience.

No blow dryer in the room. Went to lobby to ask for it twice but still didn’t send it to the room. By the end, I slept with wet hair and woke up with not fully dry hair. No coffee cups in the room, had to ask from the front desk. Very noisy air conditioner. Luckily I had a Benadryl to help the sleep.

We liked the convenience of being close to the boardwalk at a reasonable hotel fee. The only thing that was difficult for us, was to try to charge our electronic devices with very limited outlets. I would suggest taking A multi plug adapter.

The check-in was easy. The staff was friendly. It is located 2 blocks from the waterfront and boardwalk. The room was small but clean. There are no elevators, stairs only. The building is old, but maintained. This is a 2-star facility, but is comfortable. Restaurants are nearby. Parking is limited, but we had no problem with it.

The property is fairly close to everything so it is convenient location. Property is safe however the facilities needs improvement, the kitchen in the a two bedroom suit lack utensils, plates. The sofabed was in poor condition for someone to sleep. The property needs TLC and maintenance.

Great for teenagers or college students, but left a lot to be desired for anyone looking for more upscale accommodations. There was no fan or towel racks in the tiny little bathroom. The bathroom sink was outside the bathroom, next to the beds. the shower head was a little plastic clip-on thing that fell off in your hand whenever one tried to redirect the spray. There were no shelves in the refrigerator, except one on top that was apparently a freezer. Our slice of pizza froze to that surface and we had to leave it. There was no way to put any other food in there. Two outlets were broken, and there was a large head-sized hole in the wall between the beds. Rooms too small to include a desk, and no luggage caddy available. The ice machine & pool were in a completely different hotel! And the A/C unit could wake the dead. And no elevator. Lots of noisy partying going on at nighttime, so definitely best for the younger crowd

Very small and not comfortable

Walls were so thin we heard guests up until 5 AM being obnoxious

Horrible customer service. We didnt have blinds on the door and the front door didnt lock. All they kept saying is that they would call someone. Never did! Will never book here again

My check in was fast and easy. I was informed about check in upon my arrival and was notified if there were any changes. The apartment was perfect for my weekend accommodations. Nika was very great and also gave me contact info for an on site supervisor. This was a great experience and I would definitely book again.

Service was wonderful! We had to ask for a few items and they not only had them, they were quick on getting them to us. The room is older, but the beds were comfortable if you like firm mattresses (my husband was happy). According to the kids, the pull out mattress was a bit blah, but it is a pull out mattress. My biggest issue was the bathroom. There were no places to put toothbrushes and the like or hang towels (other than the shower curtain pole). The sink looked like it was going to all off at any moment (the soap had to be put between the faucet and wall or it would just fall into the sink). Other than that, though, the room was great for our stay.

The shower kept turning on & off , could not finish my shower til 30 minutes later . Front desk female staff was really sassy while i asked for help .

Rented at the Ambassador for Ocean's Calling Festival, it was perfect. Close enough to event, the staff Livia was awesome, no complaints.

Too many bad things to say. Staff was more or less non-existent. Stayed three days and no one EVER came to my room to clean it. I had to ask, and they came and did only what I asked. Desk clerk failed to return my ID when I checked in and never contacted me about it. Once I realized and went to retrieve it was clear they knew about it but took ZERO action to return it to me, very bad. Room layout was very ODD, no chair or desk in the room. wow, Stay away, this place is awful.

It was terrible soon as I checked in put my stuff in the room was going to head to the pool the door wouldn’t lock. They called for someone to fix it had to wait almost two hours and that’s because I had to go to the office and say something a second time. That night the microwave wouldn’t work and neither did the WiFi which didn’t work the whole time only worked if you were standing in the office. The next morning the fridge wouldn’t work I reported all three problems once again they needed me to wait I waited for about an hour but than I left for lunch. Once I got back had to wait for them to fix it. That night/morning someone was fighting & arguing in the hallway slamming up against the door the wall running up and down the steps and cussing. Called the office twice a woman answered and said I would have to come downstairs to the office. A couple of hours after that the tv stopped working. I asked them if I could get some type of discount because of all the things that happened or some type of credit but they wouldn’t agree to anything. Bad customer service

Location & quietness.

Close to the beach

From the pictures online, I did not expect anything spectacular but I did expect at minimum an average room near the beach. The room was dirty with obvious old stains on the walls and on the lamp shades, the bathroom was minimally clean with a layer of dirt around the molding, and the microwave appeared as though it legitimately melted on the inside. The hot water for the shower would go in and out throughout your time in the shower and on the third night the water just stopped mid-shower for approximately 5 minutes before coming back on alternating between hot and cold. The first staff member I told about the water apologized and said he would have maintenance look into it. He must have as the second day was fine. I told a different staff member that the water legitimately went out mid shower without me turning it off and he seem as though he was annoyed that I was telling him and gave a half-hearted apology. The other guests staying there made it interesting to not know if it was the television or guests fighting. With all of this, the ONLY great thing about this spot is the location. It was 2 blocks from the boardwalk and the beach so pretty centrally located, however there are several other hotels also centrally located that would likely be a cleaner option for similar price. I would NOT recommend this property at all.

For the price, you can’t beat the location. A 2 minute walk to the boardwalk. Definitely recommended for a stay less than a week and for people looking for a place to sleep, and somewhere to get ready. Well worth the price.. staff was great too.

It was an older hotel but clean and close to everything you would need,I would definitely stay again

Very close to the beach and boardwalk.

It’s a little outdated and the walls are thin but everything was cool. Very close the beach and reasonably priced

We liked the convenience of being able to walk to the festival at the boardwalk we were in town for without having to worry about transportation. You get what you pay for, great for what it was, a motel. Would stay again if doing another quick festival trip.

Room was very good & clean!! Really liked the outdoor covered patio areas with picnic tables. Very close & convenient to beach, boardwalk, shopping, etc. Only negatives I have is there was not a towel/wash rag holder on wall to hang up the ones you were using & wished they would have served a Continental Breakfast. We kind of rigged our own way to the handling of our hand towels & wash rags. But overall, was mostly satisfied!!
