I cannot recommend this place enough. I loved my little apartment! It has everything you need. I stayed here for 3 years for my post-bac and 1st year of med school. I did not have a car and found everything to be within walking distance. School, supermarket and the strip of local restaurants are all within 15 mins walking distance. The light bill was never high. Internet was nice, some tenants share wifi for a small charge which I did for a while and it worked but I ended up getting a new... customer promotion to get my own wifi.
The highlight of my stay here was Lisa (the landlord). She is such a beautiful person. She cares about her tenants and is always quick to reply to any messages. If maintenance is taking a while she checks in to let you know she hasn’t forgotten which I always appreciated. I only needed maintenance once for a water pressure issue in my bathroom sink and it was fixed quickly. I never had any problems with any pests or loud neighbors.

The best place to stay if you’re a SIU student
If you’re coming to study at SIU, Ambassador Studio is a great place to stay! Very close to campus and Schnucks, very quiet and cozy. The owner, Lisa, is one of the nicest and kindest people I’ve ever met in my life. Comparing to other places my friends stayed, Ambassador Studio was the best choice

Perfect place
I have lived here for two years. It is very suitable for students to live alone. The landlord always solve any small problems immediately. Best landlord, and best living experience.

Great Place
I had the pleasure of living at Ambassador Studio Apartments for a full academic year, and I can confidently say it was an excellent experience. The location is incredibly convenient—just a short walk from campus, making it perfect for students or anyone affiliated with the university. The area is also well-connected with easy access to public transportation, shops, and restaurants.
The studio itself was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully laid out, offering a comfortable and quiet space... to focus on work or relax. Internet access was reliable, which was especially important for my academic work.
One of the highlights of my experience was working with Lisa, the property manager. She is professional, friendly, and always responsive. Whether it was a quick question or a maintenance request, she handled everything with care and flexibility. It’s rare to find such a supportive and approachable manager—Lisa truly goes above and beyond to make sure residents feel comfortable and heard.
I’m very happy with my time at Ambassador and plan to return next year. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a well-located, well-managed, and welcoming apartment in the area.
