This was our first time at Cambria. Loved that there were no carpets in the room, no tub to collect water while showering, water pressure was great, room was clean, the staff was friendly and accommodating. Conveniently located to Fort Jackson, the reason for our visit. There was a fee to park but otherwise this was a great value and pleasant stay.
