A Charming Lovely Abode
The Cambria is the hotel I booked after my most unpleasant experience at Embassy Suites Hilton Greystone. The Cambria is a most lovely charming hotel. All staff are engaging and attentive. The Cambria is close to all things downtown, college & university, and libraries. The food is pretty good. Valet service is efficient and staffers there are courteous! The hotel is aesthetically pleasing, and I looked forward to going to my room. The Cambria has the best bed linens, and I appreciate the embedded time clock in the bathroom mirror.

A relatively new-er property there in Columbia... Top Notch!! Right there near the campus, so it has been incredibly convenient and a nice home-away-from home when we would visit the kiddo there at USC!!

Nice.
Overall our stay was nice. Staff was very friendly. I was disappointed with the fact that they don’t automatically make up your room each day. Given the price we paid I expect this. When I asked for our room to be serviced they simply made the bed and left clean towels. We did not get clean glasses and they did not restock the coffee supplies.
