Clean, spacious room with modern kitchenette, perfect for our overnight stay. Uber ride to Go Media (Mt Smart) Stadium $12 one-way - we think, very reasonable price.

No shower door - slippery tiles on floor. Bathroom mat got very wet, very quickly.

Friendly staff member at check in. Thank you for your hospitality.

Property was undergoing refurbishment, but we were informed of that and it didn't effect a weekend stay. Positives: Friendly check in. Great location for where we needed to be. Water pressure in the shower was excellent. Clean and tidy room. Sky tv and wifi in the room. Road noise/motel noise wasn't too bad. Air con was great, and easy to use.
Things needing improvement: The bathroom had no extractor fan, but did have a window near the shower you could open. I felt like people could possibly see in. The tiling on the shower/bathroom floor became very slippery once you had a shower. Beds were not the best I've slept on, but were adequate.
There is refurbishments going on in the downstairs units so it may be that the upper units are still to be done. Overall it was fine for a budget friendly night away with kids.

Convenience for an early appointment at Hospital.

Chose this motel for the close proximity to the Ascot Hospital . Had an early morning appointment, so having to travel from Hunua, we found it less stressful to be five minutes away from the Hospital than joining in with the early morning rush hour traffic. Would use this Motel again in the same situation.

Where to start have stayed in numerous motels both here and overseas and this was terrible and would never go back. Refurbished room ... um maybe in 1979 holec around toilet button, tiles chipped and old, chipped mugs, room not serviced over 4 day stay no bed made just cover thrown up, no dishes cleaned, rubbish bins emptied spasmodically had to ask for toilet paper and tea bags (given a shopping bag instead). Handed a key and told vicinity of room. Noisy people in other unit partying out side window until early hours complained it continued, did not feel safe staying on my own. Tried to check out notice on door said reception not open till 8am (!?) at 8.15am still locked and in darkness. Operators keen to get your money but no service or interest from there on in. Don't waste your money not worth it.

I was in an upstairs room, which also looked as if it had an adjoining room if required. The first night was good, the second night the walls seemed very thin as I could hear my neighbours quite clearly when they were in the kitchen, I could even hear the jug being boiled. This made it a little harder to get to sleep. My room was serviced but only the towels were changed and the rubbish bin emptied. The bathroom needed updating, old mould in the bottom corners and did not like the wet room setup as the floor got very slippery after a shower.
Very handy location, public transport across the road, supermarket and shops in close walking distance.

Clean and with comfy beds. Not happy to see a huge cockroach.
No idea how to work air conditioner/heater, and no instructions.
Room was up two flights of stairs (No elevator) - difficult with heavy bags.
Water hot/cold switched on shower, so ran the cold for 10 minutes waiting for it to warm up. This issue needs to be fixed ASAP as Auckland has severe water shortage.
Location is 30 minutes from Airport, very central, and close to large park (One Tree Hill).

This was a terrible experience.
The room absolutely stunk, there was rubbish left under the beds from previous guests, when we arrived the bathroom had ants all over the vanity, bath, towels and toilet. The bathroom was in a complete state of disrepair with cracked tiles around the bath and toilet, the bath was revolting stained and peeling (and although it had jets it was far from what we consider a spa bath), the shower had pink scum all over it, the toilet although seemingly clean the flush button was barely able to be pushed as it was so far inside the wall with a broken tile allowing a finger to push it. The kitchen seemed clean however we did not use it. The sheets appeared clean but the bed was anything but comfortable given the multitudes of bunched up unknown layers under the bottom sheet. We approached the staff on one occasion (to sort out the ants) she came into the room with fly spray and a face cloth. She must have sprayed most of the can as the stench was very strong, when we asked her to clean up the fly spray and change the towels she only wiped the flyspray remnants with the dry face cloth and shook off and refolded the towels that had ants on them.
We enjoyed our night away from life however this was not because we enjoyed our stay, the best part of the motel was leaving and knowing we would never ever return, we were incredibly disappointed.
