• The room was great! The little things went beyond my expectations.
• The location was terrible.

“ The lobby was beautiful but not as grand as I had expected, rather small. The bed was amazing. I really like the program the hotel had on the television. It had many options that I have never seen at another hotel. The ice machine and vending were in the basement only, which often was an inconvenience. The wait staff at the hotel restaurant were friendly and fun. I would recommend this hotel to everyone! ”

• Great shuttle service.
• Not a grand hotel but very nice,a step above most.

“A good mixture of old
and new. There are not that many entertainment choices within walking distance but the shuttle makes up for that. Really nice not to have to worry about parking or having a couple drinks and driving”

• The atmosphere, very cool looking, also very friendly and helpful staff.
• I had 3 kids with me and we received a room with one queen bed. They had no cots either.

“I liked the fact that it was a smaller hotel, it's a little more personable. Nice atmosphere, and I liked the location area of the lounge. Very friendly staff, and was helpful too.”

• The decor inside was nice. The elevators were cool.
• No pool, no hot tub, no breakfast, no extras.

“The hotel itself was nice. It did not have a hot tub, a pool which is what we were hoping for.”

• Cute art deco thing going on, free parking.
• Tiny room, horrible location.

“I stay at a lot of upscale boutique hotels. I'd rate this one on the lower end. It really isn't a luxury hotel. The lobby is plain. My room was tiny (there wasn't even a closet or a wardrobe to hang my suit). The staff is friendly but inexperienced.”

• Attractive art decor lobby.
• Far below 4-star quality; very small bathroom; K-Mart linens - thin, ugly comforter, tear in sheets.

“This hotel is clean and relatively inexpensive, but don't go there expecting anything approaching luxury. They made an effort to restore it to its former glory, but they fell far short.”

• Comfortable atmosphere.
• Took a while to figure out that each room has a master electric switch for lights.

“Very clean and comfortable hotel. Every member of the hotel staff that we had contact with was friendly and helpful. The hotel offers a complimentary shuttle service that will drop off and pick up at local downtown attractions. This was a plus for our visit. Room service was prompt and very affordable.”

• The staff was very friendly, and very helpful.

“The hotel was clean and what we expected. The staff was friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The area of the hotel may be a little better suited to business travelers and not as much for leisure travelers but they do operate a once an hour shuttle. I would stay there again.”

• Great accommodations.
• Far from downtown.

“This is a great hotel. The location is a little far from downtown but they have a fantastic shuttle which accommodates for this. Would definitely be happy if this is where we would be placed to stay again!”

• It was very clean and it had character.

“Convenient downtown location, very friendly staff, very clean, elegant older building with lots of character; unique Sunday brunch.”

• Extremely attentive, accommodating staff; renovated art deco decor is fabulous and spacious rooms.
• No shelf /wastebasket in bathroom; my bed was uncomfortable, but my daughter was comfortable.

“My daughter and I stayed at the Ambassador during a Marquette campus visit. I was wowed by the decor and our spacious room. The entire staff was friendly and accommodating. The shuttle driver was available at a moment's notice; the desk staff was helpful with our numerous inquiries; our breakfast in the restaurant was tasty and healthy.”

• Front desk staff was very helpful.
• The cleaning staff were loud and not very friendly.

“Stayed in a King room which was very spacious and comfortable. The front desk staff had made an error and sent us to a room that was occupied but he was apologetic and assisted us with a new room. I also enjoyed to bar in the lower level.”

• Attractive, historical and friendly people.
• Thin walls, cramped bathroom, and recently painted closet.

“My hand came away from the closet with paint on. Luckily none touched the clothes I was going to put in. Adjacent to our room was some kind of business room and if I had wanted, I could have listened to each word. The bathroom door rubbed against the toilet as it opened and closed. Very annoying. But it was a lovely old hotel; everyone we dealt with in person was nice.”
