Cleanliness
2.9
Multiple guests report serious issues: black mold on walls, peeling wallpaper, cockroach in a room, general dirtiness, carpet stains and a sub-90% sanitation grade.
Service
9.9
Mixed but often strong front-desk interactions and several reports of a prompt airport shuttle; however there are notable failures (paid shuttle/no-show, staff not showing up) — overall guest-facing staff and some shuttle runs were reported as very good.
Location
9.4
Consistently praised for proximity to RDU airport, highway access and nearby restaurants; frequently described as convenient for an overnight airport stay.
Room Quality
5.5
Mixed reports: some rooms described as spacious, up-to-date and comfortable (bed comfortable, fridge/microwave/Keurig), while others suffered mold, pests, AC issues and ceiling leaks.
Amenities
5.9
Property offers a bar, in-room fridge/microwave/Keurig and shuttle, but the pool was closed, on-site food was limited/out of stock at times and some in-room coffee makers were defective.
Value for Money
8.7
Mixed perception: one guest called the price very reasonable for an airport stay, but others noted overpriced snacks/parking/shuttle and additional unexpected charges; generally seen as good value for short airport stays when things work.
Food and Beverage
6.5
Varied: some guests found breakfast average with hot items available and bar food praised, while others reported breakfast as a disaster, no hot breakfast, cold/old coffee or no breakfast due to staff shortages.
Overall Experience
6.4
Highly inconsistent guest experiences: several very negative stays (mold, pests, dirty facilities, failing services) contrasted with many satisfactory quick airport stays; inconsistency drives a mediocre overall impression.

Do not go here!
Pros:

The breakfast was decent

Cons:

When we opened the door to our first room we were hit with a mold smell and quickly found black mold going five feet up the wall and the wallpaper peeling. We immediately asked for a new room, this one did not have mold (why weren’t we given this room first?). The second room was nicer until we went to the bathroom in the middle of the night and found a cockroach on the wall. We arrived at midnight and I sent the kids to get two cup of noodles and waters, this cost $33, what?? When I checked in the mornings cup of noodles was indeed $5.00! We got up at 6:00 and left, two of my kids did not sleep after the mold and cockroach they were very uncomfortable.

Really good hotel near Raleigh-Durham Airport
Pros:

I flew into the RDU airport after 10:00 pm. After getting my checked bag, I called for a shuttle to the Cambria Hotel. I was there in about 8 minutes. I was greeted and was in the room in 5 minutes. The room was very spacious with a sitting area, bedroom, fridge, microwave and a Keurig. I was pleasantly surprised. I would recommend the Cambria in Morrisville, NC for a comfortable stay near the airport and the Research Triangle Park.

Close to RDU Airport, highway and restaurants
Pros:

Despite the under 90% sanitation grade and a few necessary upgrades or repairs that need to be made it was not a bad stay. The pool and Bar were clothes and I'm guessing that has something to do with the sanitation grade. Breakfast was average for Hotel chain. They did have hot items like omelettes and different types of meats.

A good choice for quick access to RDU International airport
Pros:

I stayed here only to catch an early morning flight. Plusses: Price was very reasonable. The property was clean and room was up-to-date. I had a quiet, comfortable nights rest. Free airport shuttle was prompt and efficient. Minuses: I arrived at 4 pm, had no transportation and on-site food was very limited. Many of the microwavable meals were out of stock, and there were no healthy snacks to speak of. Also the coffee maker in my room was defective and it's essential for me to jump-start an early rising. Luckily the lobby coffee was already available and it was very good. I didn't have time to sample their breakfast.

Cambria Shuttle Service (Paid) to get to and from RDU Airport
Pros:

This review is for the shuttle service they offer. We paid to park at Cambria and shuttle to RDU and after the trip to be shuttled from RDU to their hotel where we parked. JUST DON’T, after waiting 45 minutes we paid an uber to take us to the hotel to get our car. NEVER again! To my knowledge they never showed up after telling us they would be there in 5-10 minutes.

Pros:

Great location very close to the airport. Good price that includes breakfast! The room was spacious.

Cons:

Furniture and fixtures looked dated. I couldn't get a toothbrush anywhere. Staff offered me toothpaste but no toothbrush, even for purchase. The vending machine on the 3rd floor seemed to be broken so I couldn't get a drink. And no bottled water was provided in the room.
