“Ambassadors Inn & Suites presents a budget option in Virginia Beach, but reports of cleanliness issues and safety concerns significantly temper any potential savings. I noted mentions of soiled rooms, pests, and compromised door security; these are factors that demand serious consideration. For travelers prioritizing peace of mind and basic comfort, exploring alternative accommodations might be prudent.”
