Not a good stay

A lot of activities go on at this hotel but you get what you pay for. Random strangers knocking at the door and to top it off someone tried to break into our room while we were in there. The guy responded oh i didnt know this room was occupied. Then come to find out its the night manager at the check out desk. I enjoyed Camden but i will never go to this hotel again. We checked out a day early because of the BS

The best things about the Colony Inn were the price and location. We were assigned a room in the back building and it was so gross it was kind of comical. The hallway and the room smelled like mold and bleach. The room had been retextured, and I do mean the entire room, not just the walls. The curtains, TV, floor, a spider, the air conditioner, you name it. The fridge didn’t work, the desk/table tops were smudged and greasy, the table legs and windowsill were moldy, and the coffeemaker was in the bathroom covered in a spray of toothpaste spit. There was a tall, shadeless lamp in the corner, but hey at least the bare bulb was bright. The toilet was leaking and the half roll of TP was sitting on the floor when we got there since the bar from the holder was missing. Not a huge deal, but, I don’t know, maybe something that could be replaced. Despite some suspicious stains on the bedspreads, the pillows and the sheets underneath seemed clean. It was a pretty quiet place (because nobody wants to stay there) and at the end of the day, it was a spot to store our stuff while we were at the festival and to get a few hours of sleep in between. If your lodging budget is $50 a night and you’re not planning to spend a lot of time in your room, stay here. You could do worse… I mean, like, a little anyway. Personally, I’ll build in a smidge extra next time because I feel like we deserve at least the cleanliness of a Motel 6; those are pretty nice now. Don’t undervalue yourself.
