Hotel berhampiran CVS, Calverton

I usually get the one bedroom suite and was pleasantly surprised at the size of this one which was larger than the others I have been at. The lady at the breakfast area was very good as was the front desk staff. The room's carpeting needs to be replaced in spots. I would certainly stay again.

On the outside it is not inspiring. There is construction going on and it's tucked in between like a car dealership and other non-hotel businesses. I was worried as I drove up. But inside, it's its own little world. It is EXTREMELY clean. The breakfast was actually satisfying and the staff were friendly. The room was great. The only thing I would like to see is, as they replace their mini-fridges, that they use ones that have a separate freezer compartment. We had some frozen things we wanted to stay frozen, and the back wall of the mini-fridge was not up to the task. We slept great and it was conveniently located for where we needed to be. Very fair pricing as well.

I stayed at this hotel in Silver Springs on Colesville Rd in March 2023. Both nights of my stay, I was not able to sleep because of the group next door. The second night, I called downstairs twice, after I was not able to sleep because the group next door kept banging on my door, yelling on the floor, and partying. Both times, I was told that even though the hotel has a policy stated on all floors that the hotel was quiet as a mandate from 11pm-7am, there was nothing they could do. I’m not a particularly light sleeper either. This led to me not being able to sleep all night both nights, it ruined my stay, and it is simply not acceptable to run a hotel where management denies guests the basic right to sleep in the hotel because they can't manage other guests. When I went downstairs in the morning to follow up, the person at the front desk seemed confused and told me that the standard response is to send security to manage the group. This was never offered, nor what the person at the front desk did. I find all of this unacceptable. I was staying there for a conference and I was not able to do the work I should have reasonably expected to be able to do because I was exhausted from travel and unable to rest. I think the very basic function of a hotel and the reason people stay at hotels is that they expect to be able to sleep in the room that they have been assigned. If you can't provide that, then I don't know why you offer people rooms at a price.

This hotel, although, conveniently located, is on a very, very, very busy street. Very close to the University, and a lot of fun places to eat and hang out, but it comes at the cost of being in an ever so slightly “shady” area. Once inside the hotel, you forget about all of it, and the staff do an excellent job of making you feel welcome and this older property. I will agree with some of the other reviewers that it is conveniently located to the green line, but we were unprepared for all of the fees associated with parking and riding in to DC. We wish we would have reserved parking lot in town and just driven.

PROS: Stood here for the weekend with my partner. Aesthetically, the hotel is super artsy, fun, and pleasing to the eye. The decor and appearance screams chic, quirky, and metropolitan. From the lobby, adorned with all manners of interesting books, odd trinkets, and colorful sculptures, to the cute, cozy outdoor sitting space filled with pretty greenery, I could not stop raving about this hotel the entire trip. The style of the rooms could very much be described as a European “take” on the well-known Japanese “Pod” style hotels. The rooms were concise (not cramped) and had a sleek, modern, and minimalistic style of furniture (desk with chair, bench, vanity w/sink, bed-frame with built in storage space). Think “IKEA meets stylish, retro Japanese pod hotel”. If that makes sense. LOL. Plus everything in the room is controlled using an iPad which I think it pretty flipping cool. SMART TV in the room, as well, meaning unlimited access to YouTube, Netflix, or pretty much anything that can stream from your phone/device which is perfect after a long day exploring the city. (You can also change the color of the mood lighting in the room via the IPad which provided my boyfriend and I with hours of entertainment pretending we were post apocalyptic humans trapped in some green-tinted “Twilight Zone” style alien bunker) Also, if you prefer a hard mattress, you will find the hotel bed very comfortable. During our time here, we had easy access to a LOT of good food. There’s 2 restaurants inside the hotel as well as a really great Middle Eastern restaurant directly across the street. (I approve of their falafel and roasted sweet potatoes. Very good). There are so many cultural and ethnic restaurants in the immediate area for those who are adventurous eaters. There’s even a pretty nice Trader Joe’s around 4 blocks away for stocking the hotel room with healthy snacks and beverages (a must). Plus Union Market is pretty close to the hotel. I wouldn’t miss it if I were you. Big hall with lots of food vendors and even a little shopping. Even if you aren’t looking to eat and just want to kill a little time, it’s still interesting to walk around and see the cool and unique foods they sell. Soak up the little local color. Overall, it was a totally unique and memorable hotel experience that was totally worth the cost. Well done. LF

Once we arrived at the hotel, the front desk clerk was rude. I wish I knew how to spell her name but I think it's Jury or Jurdy something like that. They had experience a power outage and I asked her will the first night be accommodated? We traveled from Indianapolis to come to a hotel without service. We left to go to a different hotel down the street, their sister hotel named the hotel at the university of maryland. Upon arrival the front desk clerk was nothing but courteous and very helpful. They to had experience a power outage but she was able to accommodate our room for that night unlike the cambria. I booked my room with a 3rd party but I hadn't checked out. came back to find out that my key didn't work. I went to the front desk and she had trouble finding my reservation. But she cut me another room key. to my surprise, someone else had already checked in the room. She gave my room away and she knew it. That's when I went to another hotel and received much better customer service. Not only that, they had charged my credit card which they were not suppose to since I booked my room through a 3rd party. They were charging my account. I spoke with the manager for charging my card without permission. The sister hotel had to put the money back on my card. That's why I said I would stay at the hotel university of maryland and NEVER at the Cambria. Very bad experience. customer service is everything.

The hotel was clean. There were no bugs and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was nice. There is also breakfast, but it is not included. For the price of the hotel, it was definitely worth the stay.

酒店一樓房間正對停車場，大家入住的時候一定不要踩坑

The whole staff was professional, friendly, courteous, and attentive. Sometimes staff members at hotels can seem like they could care less and do the bare minimum. But from the time we walked thru the door of this location, we have felt the differ. We have felt welcomed. From the front desk clerks to the cleaning staff to the breakfast attendant, the service was positive. Whatever we needed, we got it quickly. When walking the hallways, the staff stopped and said hello to us, like at a 5 star hotel. When I came for breakfast, at the last minute, the breakfast attendant, Tiblet, was not put off!! She greeted me with a smile and asked if I needed anything. She then gave all of the quests ample warning to come and get more food before she closed things down, all in a respectful and professional manner. Even though it was time for her to close, she didn’t make us feel like we were being kicked out. Cuddos to the management here. Your good work shows through your staff!! I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a place that’s budget friendly but with a high class experience.

Had a one day night stopover to collect my documents before heading on a flight back to Europe. The bed was clean and ambience was OK as with my previous stay. The Reception was kind enough to keep my document when it was delivered by courier so I am very thankful for that. Will recommend to anyone on a budget - this place is value for money.
