Not good value!
The main bed in Room 3,should have been replaced 30 to 40 years ago. The springs have all collapsed causing a massive sag.
Needs a good reno.
The windows also need a good clean

Check in experience was horrible even though called and emailed 3 days prior to check in for checkin instructions after office hours. Did not confirm reception will be closed at 5pm. Did not provide check in instructions until later afternoon of the check in date when we are already on the plane and had no Wi-Fi access in a foreign country. would not recommend if you don’t have access to local cellphones. Have almost gave up and tried to book somewhere else when we arrived with no one at reception and it was late and dark. Had to force to set phone on roaming and found the email re check in instructions.

This is value for money, but getting a little run down, but guess the price reflects that. Laundry was not available in the the time we were there. Would recommend for a budget short stay, but perhaps our 9 nights was a little long. However staff were helpful and friendly. Bus stops handy and seemed to be plenty of parking

It was okay, did its job for what it was. Paying what I did and expecting to wash dishes and take out our own rubbish upon check out was questionable. Wouldn’t stay more than one night though.

The Camden Motor Inn was perfect for my trip to Mermaid Waters. There is a Woolies metro, coffee, convenient store, Thai, pizza and bakery right a cross the road. The beach is two minutes away on foot and parking is right underneath.
Even on the main road it was still quiet at night.
Will definitely be returning for my next trip!

A mother was screaming and shouting at her very young child to go to sleep, well after 10:30pm, several times. Roadworks were right in front of the entry point to the building/parking area. Loud cars roaring up & down the streets in front of the building all hours of the night. Very dissatisfied.

Everything went smoothly, except for the excavator at 3am outside our window. Not the fault of the hotel, but not pleasant at all.
Some of the bathroom floor tiles were loose creating a hazard. When told the staff felt embarrased so hopefully they fixed it before the next guest comes in.
Nice and close to the beach and shops and reasonable facilities.
Otherwise, good value for the price.
