All reviews
Pros (+) Breakfast
Cons (-) Wished the rooms were vacuumed
Pros (+) Clean, good free breakfast and happy hour everyday.
Cons (-) None
Pros (+) Breakfast and evening reception were good
Cons (-) One of the elevators was out of service all week, which made getting to and from our room a very long process. Also, if we had known that the hotel was going to be overrun by Portuguese Water Dogs the entire week, we wouldn't have stayed there.
Pros (+) Great breakfast and happy hour reception
Cons (-) Need queen beds
Pros (+) I brought 3 teens along on a work trip and they were Happy with everything – the indoor pool, pool table, snacks, breakfast evening reception etc. having two rooms. was so much easier for us and everything was great!
Pros (+) Friendy, helpful, knowledgeable staff who remembered my name hours after check in. Atrium architecture is nice. There was a wedding going on on the atrium when I arrived. Good, convenient, complimentary breakfast.
Pros (+) Pool for kids, full breakfast and convenient location
Cons (-) The rooms need attention. Our room counter over the fridge had a huge crack. Really tacky and disappointing for Embassy to rent out a room with that kind of an eyesore. I've been staying at Embassy off and on for the past almost 20 years in various locations and for the most part you can expect nice rooms with a good breakfast. This time I just chalked it up to an exception and not the rule.
Pros (+) Clean, spacious, cheerful employees
