It was my first time in Columbia, SC. The hotel was charming, and the location was spot on. The room was clean and comfortable, the only downside was that my room did not have a safe to store personal items. The staff was friendly. In particular, Kaitlyn was professional, helpful, and pleasant to talk to. I would definitely return to this hotel without a doubt. Location was great because all the restaurants were within walking distance.

This was our first time at Cambria. Loved that there were no carpets in the room, no tub to collect water while showering, water pressure was great, room was clean, the staff was friendly and accommodating. Conveniently located to Fort Jackson, the reason for our visit. There was a fee to park but otherwise this was a great value and pleasant stay.
