The pH goes down. This is called a red-ox reaction (reduction/oxidation).

Amonia is alkaline in aqueous solution and so has a high pH. The pH will reduce as you add the acid. you will end up with water and a salt.
One of the most characteristic properties of ammonia is its power of combining directly with acids to form salts; thus with hydrochloric acid it forms ammonium chloride (sal-ammoniac); with nitric acid, ammonium nitrate, etc. However perfectly dry ammonia will not combine with perfectly dry hydrogen chloride, a gas, moisture being necessary to bring about the reaction.[13]

NH3 + HCl → NH4Cl

The salts produced by the action of ammonia on acids are known as the ammonium salts and all contain the ammonium ion (NH4+).

I would say that the PH value would drop towards the acid end of the scale and that the reaction would depend on the acid and the strength ot the acid.
