Verified Reviews of Cambria Hotel Columbia Downtown The Vista
Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently: "Very Nice"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
Got in late my first night and two people working the front desk. The man was a little rude to me but there was a young lady who was very nice, made eye contact with me and smiled! She was excellent! All the valet people were fantastic, especially the man who worked the night shift and was getting done in the early morning. The only thing against him was he was a Yankee fan! We had fun talking sports. Got back the next night and the same girl was working. So nice and helpful. I didn't get her name but she is an excellent employee for you and deserves a raise! Thank you.

Testimonials:
"I wish I knew about you guys sooner, I've enjoyed being able to come home and go to the computer and see lots of hotels asking me to stay with them. (almost like that commercial, when the banks fight over getting your business) Will recommend to others and can't wait to use the service again myself." P.C. - Philadelphia, PA
