Almost perfect
Loved every minute of it my only complaint is the silly $25 a day mandatory amenity fee for food and snacks they charge whether you use it or not. If not for this would be an easy 5 stars. Excellent service and excellent rooms.

Very nice room, well-appointed. Hideously overpriced. On top of the nightly charge of some $530, they have the temerity to add an "amenities" fee of $25/night. It's a use-it-or-lose-it deal. You must spend $25 each day on the overpriced snacks, the bar, or the restaurant or the money is forfeited. You can't consolidate multiple days' funds. It's as if the owners had a meeting and asked, "How can we squeeze a few extra bucks out of our patrons after overcharging them for the accommodations?" I'm glad I didn't have to pay the $40/night parking charge.

The good: good space in the room and comfortable beds. Good location near the water and easy to get to the ferry terminal and access to all the restaurants and shops in Portland. The not so good: Unusual floor layout which might mean you are walking quite a distance from the elevator. Our room was located completely opposite from elevator (about a city block away). Not an issue for us but might be for people with mobility issues. Also had an air vent outside our room in the hallway which was really loud.

My wife and I asked Jeffrey for some directions and he was extremely rude. He even rolled his eyes at us and shook his head. All we were trying to do is get directions to duckfat restaurant. Everyone else was pleasant from the Valet to the guy that checked us in. Definitely not recommending this hotel brand to anyone. It costs nothing to be nice to people.

Time and time again the Cambria delivers. Amazing location enables you to take in all of Portland by foot. From the hillside and the USS Maine, to the Porthole and points beyond, it’s all there. And the recommendations from the front desk were so perfect the 3 times we inquired. Great property, great people, memorable times!

Nice place, not a five star hotel but clean and convenient to downtown Portland (which easily walkable from wherever you are). Front desk staff is really pleasant. Special shout out to Nisa at the front desk for the excellent beach recommendation. We had an issue with the automatic shades in our room. Called it in and they were there within 5 minutes to fix it. Overall, would stay there again.
