We were so happy we chose Cambria Hotel for our stay while attending an event at the Baird Center. The staff person at check in was friendly and accommodating. The room had everything we needed, the beds were comfortable, and the bathroom was spacious! The pool, though not very big, was nice and warm. One thing missing was free breakfast. We would have appreciated a quick simple breakfast before heading out to our event in the morning.

The hotel was very modern and clean. Bed was very comfortable and swimming pool was nice. Cons would be the tv is in a weird place on the wall, so you kind of have to watch it in an angle. They could have used some runners in the hallway by the room door- hardwood floors/no carpeting makes it hard to take off your boots in the winter. Water pressure in bathroom was weak, but it was very clean and easy to get around to restaurants.

Overall bad experience

The lobby door was locked when I arrived at 4pm on a Saturday afternoon. I had to wait for someone coming out to activate the automatic door. The shower was warm, not hot. They charged me $25 for overnight parking but their lot was full. She said the fee also applied to the public lot next door. Why are you charging $25 to park in a $15 public lot? Headboard light just kept flashing and never came on. Room was sparse and not comfortable, it was more like an unfinished dorm room. I will never book at a Cambria again.

$25 parking?

This hotel was great but they charge you $25 for parking which I’ve literally never experienced in the 100+ hotels I’ve stayed in over my life. Just don’t charge for parking and raise the cost of the room. It’s Milwaukee, who isn’t driving? Who is getting into Milwaukee and walking to their hotel? Weird.
