Was fine, served my needs ok.

At first, when I checked into my room, it was an un-cleaned, not ready room. They gave me a new room. The beds were very comfortable and the room felt spacious. Even though I asked for room service just to tidy up and supply more coffee pods, etc. it took a couple days until I was able to get service.The night manager was far from kind when I asked for service saying that it “isn’t life or death”. Apparently she also works as some type of “nurse” for her other job she said. I had to ask several times before getting housekeeping. They seemed a little short staffed possibly. Had to ask for new room key twice b/c it kept not working. It’s a good location and served my purposes fine. Probably wouldn’t stay there again though.

Overall, a nice hotel and well-situated for walking around downtown. However, in our room, the headboard was filthy and stained. Also, we happened to look at the mattress and it was gross. Although super comfortable, they definitely need new mattresses. The staff were all super-friendly and helpful. If you’re looking for a quiet room, make sure to get an inside room. We couldn’t sleep on Saturday night because of all the partying and honking on the (Broad) street below. Also we were near the elevator…

The location is great and the room was pretty spacious, however...We arrived very late, around 12:30 am, but we had let the hotel know about this late arrival. Right off the bat, there were issues with the room keys, someone had to let us in the room (issues even with master key) and then get the key cards for us. We noticed that the cover was off the HVAC unit, but we were tired and went to bed. Next morning, we told the desk about the maintenance issue. That was fixed, but we kept mentioning that the AC was not working; the room temp would hover in the upper 70s. It was never addressed. At one point, the head of housekeeping stopped by our room and was surprised to see us there. He said the system had the room listed as empty and not to be used, pending maintenance, i.e. the HVAC. So, we never had our issues addressed plus no room service, so we scrounged toilet paper from the housekeeper when we saw her on the floor. To top it off, Cambria has a bot sending text messages, asking if we needed assistance and I responded with our issues, but nothing was addressed. But we had a great time in Philly, so the city won, but the hotel was a thumbs down. The staff were friendly, but somehow, our needs were ignored, so I'm blaming poor management. Also, breakfast is expensive. We have other favorite hotels in Philly, usually visiting 2-4 times per year, but we decided to give this one a try. But we do not recommend it and will be staying elsewhere on future trips.

I’ve stayed at the Cambria numerous times but I definitely feel like the quality of the cambria has been lacking recently. Check in took a long time because the credit card machine was not working. Room was clean but definitely noticed a lot of wear and tear with the rooms appliances (i.e. stains/rips on the headboard of the bed, stains in the toilet, etc). The elevator was terrible during our stay unfortunately due to the rooftop. Although they say they have only one elevator allocated for the rooftop the hotel still shut down one of the elevators for regular room access which was really annoying to wait for in a crowd of yelling college students. I hope things will be better if I plan on staying here again
