Cambria Hotel Portland Downtown-Old Port
Breakfast was excellent as was the room. We especially liked the room which was bright and airy and provided a view of the rooftop lounge. The decor and the layout of the room was very contemporary and a welcome change from the typical hotel room. Location was great, too!
