Photos of property highlighted cute rooms with exposed bricks. May be in some but not in the room we were offered. The beds could use an upgrade but did the job for one night. Continental breakfast will keep us coming back. So many options and my kids said it made up for the lack of a pool.

Enjoyed our stay . Our room was very large with 2 balconies .It was nice to have housekeeping service the room everyday which doesn’t always happen these days . The building was very clean . The breakfast was wonderful and the staff looking after the breakfast did a great job ! They were always tidying the area , restocking food items and plates and glasses and cutlery it was very well looked after ! The area around the hotel had a lot of tourists around but it was very quiet and safe . My only comment would it would have been nice to have some patio furniture on the decks so you could sit out there . I also think the room we were in could probably get pretty warm in the summer in the bedroom as the air conditioning didn’t quite reach that far - but there was a fan and if you opened both deck doors you could get a breeze going through. Location was great and we would definitely stay here again .

It was our second time staying here, and it was great. We love the location, staff and breakfast. Our room, 409, had a window with a broken seal, so the moisture build up, blocked part of the view, but the room was clean and comfortable. We would stay here again, and highly recommend Embassy Inn.
