The hotel itself is clean and comfortable and has a better than average appearance. Management and staff however are complete crooks. I had money stolen from my room while I was out at work, and when I had to extend my stay in the event my work trip went longer, I ended up only needing one extra night. These criminals are trying to charge me an outrageous fee for a pre mature checkout?! Almost a thousand dollars! Not once was this mentioned to me, shown to me in any form of communication or disclosure. ZERO resolution in regard to the theft of my property from my room either. Manager was conveniently absent. I will never stay here again if I get sent to this area for business again. The Cambria hotel will be hearing from my lawyer quite soon as well if they don’t respond to my emails too. Avoid at all costs! Dirty business going on here. Quite a shame because it is a fairly decent hotel….

My check in was smooth. Most of the staff wasn't friendly. There was three staff members that I did appreciate. They were friendly and helpful. The house keeper's very rude the ones I interacted with. The breakfast $40 for two people wasn't bad. The food was good. Parking was decent. Traffic was horrible by the hotel but close to the highway. Overall it was a good stay. Nice rooms.

Checked in late due to a canceled flight out of Tweed airport in New Haven. After being frustrated and upset about the cancellation, it was a welcome pleasure to spend the night at this lovely hotel. We had an attractive large room with comfortable beds, which was just what we needed! The room had pleasant lighting, and was very clean, quiet and appealing. The bathroom was roomy, with a large shower and plenty of hot water. I highly recommend this hotel!

The room was very up-to-date and comfortable, even a bit spacious, with two queen beds, a divan, good storage, and a useful desk. Best was the staff, who printed out several documents for me. Everyone was helpful & nice. This was a great hotel for touring Yale, a short walk from the college campus. Highly recommend.

The bathrooms are not cleaned everyday, and I believe that causes a lingering urine smell in the rooms. I added a few extra days after this stay, and one front desk staff member was particularly unpleasant.
