Staff were lovely. Not worth what we paid for it. The room was super hot on arrival. Room was not very clean at all, scuff marks all over the walls, dirty light switches, spa bath started out nice but then as soon as we turned it on the jets had some kind of weird dirty stuff come out of them. Left air con on but that seemed to make the fire alarm beep every 10 seconds. Bed was not a king sized bed. No way to keep bathroom cool, toilet was super hot as it had been closed the whole time and there was no window. Loved that we had a balcony.

At over $200 a night this is defiantly not a cheap place to stay. For this price I expect quite abit - cleanliness, tidy etc. However I was quite disappointed by the state of this venue. The grounds were very dirty and unkept - broken bits of furniture, empty bottles, general garden rubbish and messy gardens. The pool was full of garden waste and old bottles. The room where we stayed was a good size however, was in quite bad condition. The curtains were only just hanging onto the rods, paint was peeling, kitchen area dirty, chipped cups, and dirty carpet. The rom also had abit of a funky smell. I understand that there has been some extremely bad weather and the floods have caused some major issues, but there is no excuses for this property to look like this

So so disappointed. When we got there the owners had their family in rooms which then knocked us all out of where we were staying. My kids were separated from us in a different room. No smoke alams. Dirty on the inside, cockroachs, fat stains, stains on carpet. Horrible smell when we entered the room. The pool was green and the yard was so unkept. I do not recommend this place one little bit. Feel like youve had at least 2 years during covid to clean that place up. Could be mint but it was terrible.

Pros: kind receptionist Cons: booked a suite and it was 1/10 overall. Sheets and top blanket were dirty, spots of blood all over them, carpet was filthy and had an iron burn, the smell of the room was not great. There was no aircon only a dirty dusty fan. We asked to switch rooms and was moved to the “penthouse” - this room was tidier, everything from light switches to looks were old or rusty, there were old smoke butts on the balcony, looks like the cleaners don’t do a good job, first night a cockroach was in the bed. People in another room were blasting their music from 9pm to 5am the next morning!!! There are no curtains for the sky roof, so during summer it’s BRIGHT from 5am. Only positive was the aircon. We got this room based on how many stars, but realised this was from VERY old reviews. Would not recommend.

Read the reviews before we booked but they were very misleading. The lady at reception was very lovely but … It was dated looking, safety chain was broken, window latch broken, rip in duvet cover, burn marks on floor, paint coming off cupboards and marks on walls. Cleanish but around plugs needed a good clean etc. Neighbours are long term motel accommodation and had horrendous fights both nights with swearing and screaming, drinking and loud music from early.

The hotel was conveniently located and priced for the reason we went to Auckland this time. We didn't check the pool area, so can only comment on the service and the room. Staff was friendly and polite. Room was spacious but considerably dated, could use renovations asap. The ceiling inside the room had odd painted windows, so as soon as sunrise, there was yellow or purple light everywhere in the room, inside the bathroom and even the closet. Noise from the busy road outside and the other rooms could also be heard at any time of day or night. Those factors could affect sleep quality and comfort.

I stayed here for one night for a concert and that was too much. The bathroom smelled like a Portaloo as soon as we walked in, the toilet was leaking. The shower curtain was crusty and the wall of the shower had mould on it so showering here didn’t make you feel clean. The bed was the hardest bed I’d ever come across so sleeping was a challenge. The decor is dated which honestly is no big deal but it was just a cherry on top. The reception was fine and the staff were friendly enough when I told them that their toilet was leaking. But I won’t be staying here ever again

We booked this motel over a year ago and it had great reviews. Over the last few months, I started noticing a few negative reviews and nit- picks. To be honest, we had no idea what to expect. What I can say is the following: -Staff are friendly and courteous -The beds are super comfortable -The room was clean and spacious. -The shower had awesome pressure, room had a lovely fan and a great wee kitchen with fridge, jug, toaster etc. It’s everything you need. Yes, it’s dated, but its location is fabulous. Under 4km to Mount Eden stadium, under 2km to the best malls. It’s affordable & I think the previous negative reviews were uncalled for. We have booked again for our next stay in 12 months. Thank you to the staff for a great stay.
