Nice room with unpleasant surprises

The room was really clean and equipped with everything you need. The room I stayed at was a bit drak with a little window, but that was the only one available and the room rate was reasonable for that. The check in was a mess, though. Hotels.com doesn't share the reservation number (?) in the confirmation details (it is different from the itinerary number) and I struggle for a while to retrieve it as I could connect with the actual agent only after going through all the frustrating AI process that tried to block me from going to that stage. And there was another big setback of the room I stayed: the pub next door blared out loud club music from 10pm to 2am, solid. I thought I was in the club myself and you can't sleep with that! I had to realize the earplugs provided in the room wasn't a nice add-on but a must for survival. Thank god it didn't last on Monday and Tuesday nights.

Noisy bar impeding sleep.

Suite 604 overlooked a backyard with an open air noisy bar that made sleep impossible until after 2 AM even with earplugs provided.

Big spacious suite-comfortable bed. The check in instructions were very clear, and they even offered a luggage room so we could drop off our luggage prior to check in. It’s perfect except the noise-the walls seem quite thick-we heard nothing from our neighbors, but the windows allowed so much street noise. We were there on an early summer night and everyone was out partying. I’ll bet on a normal night it’s just fine. The air conditioner is loud, but helped drown out the noise. Use this hotel for sure-but bring ear plugs just in case.

This clean, modern, well-located hotel offers lots of space for your money--and next to nothing by way of service. Without a single human on site, you're at the mercy of digital entry codes (one for the lobby and luggage room, another for the suite), and a number to text in case of problems. When I left my phone charging in the room, couldn't remember the code and of course could not send a text, I had to flag down another guest who spent a good 20 minutes sorting me out. Good thing there wasn't a leaky ceiling or a bedbug infestation. The bar next door rocked loudly until 2 a.m. on Saturday night (to be fair, the hotel does warn guests about noise). Independent-minded travelers with great memories for numbers and a high tolerance for risk might be happy at the Cameo. As for me, never again.

Nice stay overall. We were in an 2BR off of Barrington street, the kitchen and bathroom was nice. We thought we wouldn’t get as much party noise on this side, but Saturday night was still pretty noisy on the street. Very good location. Overall good value if you can tolerate some noise.

Wow. We were warned that the room would be noisy as it is adjacent to a club but we were not prepared for what sounded like a club in our kitchen. The suite windows were maybe 15 feet above an open air club hosting about 100 people with a dj. We didn’t sleep until after 1.

Very comfortable. Free Laundry facilities on site. Close to the harbour, many different restaurants, pick up points for tours, and attractions. Loved that it had a standing oscillating fan. (Nice touch) complimentary tea and instant coffee. Fully stocked kitchen items, electric water kettle. Was a little noisy on weekends due to area bars but not bad. Added surprise tv had netflix and paramont included. The bath area needs a shelf or table in the bath to hold items but it was a lovely place.
Lovely bath, just needs a shelf or table for toiletries. If you're short,( I am), the shower heads couldn't be reached to adjust. Hot water takes a few of minutes too.
Loved the layout. Would comfortably house 2. I traveled solo and was more than happy with the accomdations.

The stay here was lovely. The room was really beautiful and had absolutely everything we needed. The check in, however, wasn’t great. I think because we booked through Expedia and not directly through Cameo. I’d tried several times to check in online but couldn’t access my confirmation # for whatever reason. I called cameo, and of course because they’re fully automated, I hit a dead end, and the Expedia chat- bot kept looping me around too, until I told him I wanted to chat with a real person. The Expedia rep was super helpful and got me what I needed- not without a lot of frustration first
