Campbelltown Colonial Motor Inn

This place should be bulldozed. The minute I walked into the so called reception I knew it was going to be a disaster . The lady at the desk appeared to be drug affected , the reception area smelt like there were dead rodents in the place . The place looked filthy and dirty . I was given the key to the room and drove to the unit block. I was scared to get out of the car. I walked up to my room , it was surrounded by pigeons and pigeon poop. I opened the door and automatically this awful smell came out of it . The place looked like a halfway house . I am not sure how booking .Com promote such a filthy /disgusting place . I automatically closed the door behind me and left . I was scared to stay there .

What i got told from my daughter it was untidy and not clean. NO1 CLEANING

No glasses A little smelly TV sound muffled

The place is in urgent need of maintenance, the walls are dirty ,the aircon is filthy, the bathroom door is damaged,the fridge is rusted everywhere ,the remote for TV didnt work , the beds and linen are vintage ,bathroom ceiling needs cleaning ,shower head loose, only one bedside lamp ,no telephone,no information compendium. An absolute run down disgrace.The noise of the aircon kept me awake all night ,was similar to listening to the grone of an airoplane engine. I could go on.

In need of repairs

I stayed at this hotel for a night. The bathroom wasn’t cleaned properly, the fridge shelves were tape, rust over almost everything, all night into the early hours the people in the room next to us has music playing and tv on high volume whilst being loud themselves and because they walls are thin we heard absolutely everything. The only good thing was the pressure in the shower that I didn’t use because it was dirty.

room was horrible, felt dirty being there. had the feeling of local bogans living in the place with swearing and noise. shower head was sticky taped up, blinds broken, smelly room, yuk fridge, and horrible bathroom. regretful nights stay

RUN FOR YOUR LIVES. Rundown Filthy and Bug Infested. AVOID this place at all costs. The rooms are foul. The AC units are as noisy as a freight train. The blinds are old and broken. There are cigarette burns on the vanity. The sheets and bedding are geriatrics and paper thin and contain non-removable stains from whoever whenever. The Carpets are full of mites and you are scratching from the point of entry. The smell is like old dust and mould and you immediately know it's an unhealthy haven for bugs. The beds are so old they turn into a V from just sitting on them. To be anywhere near the Bed means you are also bitten by either Bed Bugs or Dust Mites. There are homeless people living in this Motel and an array of strange things were witnessed. The entire carpark is lit with bright floodlights all night long. The area is rough, there were sounds of Police Sirens all night long and some loud Band playing nearby and people yahooing. We didn't dare leave the room and felt very unsafe in this area and in this revolting Motel.

The write up on line about The Colonial is a far stretch from the reality. The reviews are correct. We looked around and unfortunately there was not much available in Campbelltown for our dates. As it was, $730 for 5 nights was way above what we wanted to pay for that area. First of all I’d like to compliment the staff. They were lovely. The house keeping staff especially were very friendly and helpful. Our beds were comfortable and there was enough hot water. That’s about as good as it gets. I double checked there was wifi as my daughter works from her computer from 5am in the morning and then later at night. I was told there was wifi. There wasn’t. We were then told it was being fixed and it didn’t get fixed. So my daughter lost 2 days work and 2 days pay. We were not offered compensation in any way. The 2nd night we stayed there was some kind of deal going on in the car park. At 2am, arguing and fighting broke out in the room above my folks room and then 2 cars sat idling with their lights on for an hour and a half in the car park. Right outside my folks room. They are elderly so it was very unsettling. I watched from another room as baskets of washing were brought out to cars and then cars moved and people got out and In. It all seemed very dodgy and not what we needed on a family medical emergency trip. There was no cutlery or plates but a toaster and kettle. We had to buy a knife just so we could have toast. The rooms were very smelly and musty. We bought air freshener just to make it bearable for 5 days. If you had to stay In This area I’d recommend it for a night if you were stuck. But for the price it’s definately not worth it. I’ve stayed in 5 star beach accomodation that’s been cheaper than this. It is however close to shops and transport if that’s something you need.
