Music in the Garden
We enjoyed our stay at Cambria Hotel-Portland. It was in a perfect location and comfortable. We enjoyed sitting outside one night at sunset with the live music in the garden. It was a bonus!

Great downtown option
Great location, about a 10- minute walk to the touristy Old Port area of town. Very clean, modern look, with 'smart" mirrors in the bathroom. Comfortable beds. Good AC. Friendly staff. Be aware that there is a $25 per-day facilities fee charged on top of the room rate, and parking is $40 per night.
