Haven of all things Blue

The decor at the Cambria was beautifully designed from the wallpaper to the rugs. We ate breakfast at the restaurant and our waiter Patrick was attentive and just a great waiter. The location was great near everything; the river, Magnolia silos and great places to eat and shop. Hope all Cambria hotels are this nice.

One thing unique is that there is no carpet in the rooms and the air conditioner is actually quiet. I don’t think I like how the bathroom door has frosted glass instead of a solid door. I like the nightlights you can turn on by your headboard.

Booking was canceled without me knowing. Showed up to hotel and was told my room was canceled because me card did not work, which i immediately updated on the Expedia website and they only reached out one time and didn’t not leave voicemail to return phone call. I work in a doctors office and can’t always answer my phone. I was told they tried to reach out multiple times but I only had one missed call and when I asked why no message was left so I knew who was calling I was told they did not have to leave a voicemail which I thought was ridiculous given how nice I expected the hotel to be. I was very unhappy given I am pregnant and did not have a place to stay when I arrived for my stay.

Do not stay on the first floor!

I was pleasantly surprised how nice the hotel was! The only drawback was that they put us on the first floor near an exit door that was very busy. The door slammed loudly constantly starting very early in the morning. Guest rooms should not be near exits like this.
