Cambria Hotel Waco Univ Riverfront
I have stayed here many times when visiting my daughter at Baylor. The rooms are big, clean, and the staff is friendly. There’s also a great steakhouse and bar in the hotel. I’ve never had a chance to swim in the pool, but the pool area looks amazing!

Great stay been there twice. Don’t understand all the taxes on the final bill annd it isn’t calculated on the bill when booking it and why to stay at a property that quit expensive you need to pay for parking. All in all a great place and well located
