“Good value, clean room, convenient location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 14, 2012

We stayed at the Ambassador motel this past weekend. It is a very good value. The rooms and furnishings are not brand new, but very clean. The owner was very nice and had good information about restaurants in the area. The State Beach is less than 10 minutes away. The motel is right on route 1, but once the door is closed it was very quiet. We would stay there again.

Stayed August 2012, traveled as a couple

Thank you for the kudos, return soon. We often hear "good value" and "clean rooms" when people review our motel. This is especially true of the many who stay here rather than pay the nearbye high ocean front resort prices or the sky high Casino areas which are a short drive away. We really are a great bargain for those who value clean, quiet and comfortable.

“It's a beach motel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed August 2, 2012

...so what can you expect? Rooms were clean, well equipped (small refrigerator was very much appreciated), and the owners/managers very gracious indeed. But the air conditioner was very loud, with no settings other than "strong, blow right on the sleepers", and the beds were old and saggy. We had a great weekend, but there were definitely "opportunities for improvement".

“Clean and Quiet!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 19, 2012

If you are looking for a nice quiet place in Westerly this is it. Location is perfect! 5 min drive to the beach! Owners are very nice and helpful. They always had fresh coffee in the morning. In my opinion breakfast was a little less than average but there is a Dunkin Donuts on almost every corner in RI, so we just went there. If we ever get back to RI we are sure to stay here again!

Room Tip: I think there are a total of 8 rooms. Any one will be as clean as the next.

“Great motel!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 12, 2011

The owner is very friendly, and he really emphasizes the no smoking policy, which was great. The room and bathroom were clean and pleasant-smelling. The decor was chintzy but cute; the towels had little smiling fish and dolphins embroidered on them. I would recommend bringing your own soap, however; the shampoo/conditioner provided was minimal at best. The TV, air conditioner, fridge, and WiFi were all in working order. It's in a really convenient location. For the price, a great find. I'd happily stay there again!

“Best Motel we have stayed at in Rhode Island”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 12, 2011

We had originally had a reservation at the Aquastar Inn. The Aquastar Inn had recently had a fire and the lobby was really dirty unsanitary and smelled badly. Nobody was at the front desk which was a good thing. We left immediately and drove down the street to the Ambassador Motel. I spoke to the owner. I explained the situation to him and they fortunately had vacancy. The motel had an old school charm to it. Very clean, and it felt like I was staying at a relatives house and not a motel. I mean this in the most sincere way. When we go back to RI next year for our annual trip, I will make my reservation at the ambassador.

Room Tip: Staff is very nice and helpful if you have any issue
