Extreme fire smell
The second night my floor smelled like a forest fire. They said it's because the restaurant has wood fired pizza but it was way beyond that. My eyes burned. I slept with a mask on and then checked out the next day and moved hotels.

Great option in Somerville.
Great furnishings. Large room. Excellent location. Reasonable rate.
Night service went extra mile to come up and cover the smoke alarm light when we asked.

"Wow, I didn’t know what to expect, but this spot in Somerville is truly a hidden gem! It features a beautifully modern lobby, a spacious study area, and an impressive on-site restaurant. We initially had some trouble with check-in due to the transfer from Hotels.com to Cambria, but the staff went above and beyond to assist us. They welcomed us with a bottle of Brut and wine and provided exceptional service throughout our stay. My husband and I couldn’t have been happier with our experience here!"

Was pleasantly surprised by the Cambria. It was my first time staying after many trips to visit my daughter at Tufts. The hotel is well maintained, convenient to school and quiet. Will definitely return.
