*You can get room service everyday, not always available in some places. *The place is super clean: the toilets/ shower is sparking clean. *The service is fantastic: We locked ourselves out of the room, on a freezing night, (at around 8:30pm) and the staff didn’t hesitate to come and open the door for us. The staff is very friendly and helpful. *Good location: - it is in the main road, few minute from the shops by car. - the offer return transport to some local venues. *There is parking in front of your room. I think you can get everything that you need in a hotel at the Ambassador Motor inn

Clean, neat and affordable. However, the supplied double mattress was beyond it's use by date. It was uncomfortable to the point of being quite difficult to sleep on.

The bathroom tap made a screaming noise when turned on, and the shampoo and conditioner were in 2 small bottles (imagine a lipstick stick) so how was that going to do 2 adults . There is a blind which does not cover the sides of the window and at night people who walk out side can look in . The shower was a very cheap one and the toilet was so small. The TV was also very small. for the $129 we paid , we will go to another hotel in Ballarat next time
