We waited an hour and a half for a room to be ready for us, we were told that it had been cleaned but needed to be inspected by a supervisor. We clearly saw cleaning staff messing with their phones instead of working, so it's no wonder it took forever for rooms to be cleaned that day. When we finally got to the room, it was not very clean, stains on the couch and curtains, and dust on all of the surfaces. The air return in the room was coated with a thick layer of dust. The room felt very raggedy in general, with the couch and chairs appearing very worn out. Also, the elevators in the hotel seemed to be old and in need of maintenance. The garage elevators were out of order, so good luck if you parked on a higher level. The staff at the front desk did the best they could to handle the waiting situation, but it was obvious that this hotel is very disorganized and not prepared for a fully booked night.

Our stay at Embassy was . The only true complaint was the garage situation. My husband and I were traveling that weekend in two separate cars due to schedules. We accepted the $55 each to park our vehicles in the garage next door. The two of three elevators were out of order. The one that did work was running so slowly, that we had to take the staircase each time. (Oh, you could only park on the 3rd floor and up.) One stairwell smelled of urine and had food wrappers thrown every where. When we brought it to the staff's attention, they were aware of the elevator situation. When my husband asked to be comped, they stated they could not do so but provide points only.

It was NYE. Check in was at 4 pm we showed up at 7:30pm and I had to wait in the lobby until 10:15 with an infant and 8,9 year old. I only got to enjoy 2 hours of our night stay. Going to contact Expedia for a refund. Very disappointed in what was supposed to be a fun night for my children and I.

We had a corner room with a great view of the downtown skyline from both the living room and bedroom! The room was spacious which was a plus because we had our dog with us. Comfortable king size bed, roomy bathroom, large L shaped couch, table with chairs, two TV’s and refrigerator are some of the best amenities! Also enjoyed the free breakfast buffet and manager’s cocktail hour. Staff was friendly and helpful! Being on S. Congress gives you easy access to all the great shopping and culture! Will stay here again!
