Albany Rosedale Motel

Advertised as having Sky TV and a spa pool. No Sky TV and the spa was turned off

Enjoyed the spa pool very relaxing after a long day .

I booked this property for the pool - based on the lovely pictures on the website. However, the paint was peeling and very tired and needed of up keep.

Incredibly clean and quiet option, we enjoyed our stay here. Parking was very convenient underneath with a lift up to our room. Outlook very pleasant out towards the trees. While the motel is a little dated, everything was in good working order and very comfortable.

Loved that the Motel was easy to find, excellent no cost parking was a big bonus. Rooms were very tidy with everything you would need. Would have been good if they supplied milk for tea/coffee in the fridge. Wi-fi was extra, in this day and age that's pretty lame. I found the duty manager to be dry with little to no conversation - people skills need upgrading.

Liked my view, the pools and the dining options available. My room was fine but a friends room had a very dated duvet cover with holes it it.

Le parking couvert est appréciable ainsi que le calme dans l’hôtel .

Staff were very helpful and accommodating. Had an issue with a few areas that weren't cleaned properly and they made allowances for that. Parking was very nice - below the building, so shaded and out of sight.

Covered parking and elevator access was perfect for my partner who recently had knee surgery.

Comfy bed, great air con, quiet at night, covered parking really helpful. Only regret was the pool was not open on Monday but otherwise a good choice for an overnight stay. Thank you.

Well maintained and clean

Motel was conveniently located close to where we wanted to be and to the large shopping centre. Room condition was average with mold on headboard, extremely soft mattress, and shower head that couldn’t be angled properly. Facilities otherwise adequate

No cleaning or towels / toiletries on Sunday. Fridge stank like old fish and kitchenette floor dirty. No active cleaning products used. Cleaned the place as soon as we arrived. Wouldn't use again.

The bathroom shower door didn't close properly and was dirty. The TV had a smear of something across it and the headboard was stained. I came back late and had to go through a back entrance from the back carpark it did not feel safe.

Room stunk vile from hob/extractor fan from Previous guests to the point where I was gagging!

Great location and price; kitchenette needed some maintenance. Hallway smelt of cigarette smoke 😪

The best thing I can say is that the non-stick frying pan was good. Now, here's to the reality of it! Check-in, no one there, and so we WAITED, it was slow, and no warm welcome or information. Just given a key that was hard to use to unlock the door. The corridor stinks!! Once we went in, we were taking back by the very old decor and furniture, but here we are. The beds were old, I mean like sleeping in bed at an old family batch in the middle ocno where old!! Lumpy, mattress protector was disgusting, and the sheets had stains and narks. How we didn't get bed bugs is beyond us. The walls are grimy and vomitious, like never washed. The carpet didn't look vacuumed, and there were years of grime on walls, doors, and skirts. I'm not even talking about the rotten skirts or dents in walls and furniture. I'm talking about the filth. The kitchen was poorly stalked. The fridge, while cold, had no shelving in the doors, so little storage and the exhaust fan over the stove was broken. So, if you cooked, you couldn't use the exhaust fan to extract smells. The bathroom was okay, but the shower was too low, great for a face wash or a kid. The sinks would drain, even from brushing your teeth. I had a bad back from the sleep. Terrible noise, the air con squealed, the curtains were old and torn. The TV was a basic freeview. They allowed noisy people to party and play loud music. When I went to the counter to address my concerns, there was NEVER anyone there to speak to. We left a day early

Bathroom needs more attention, dirty surfaces. No information about the area in the room like reception number to call, Restaurants in the motel or area, etc Wifi is not free - who does that these days?

Easy check in, staff were very olite and welcoming. My room had a unpleasant smell which was a downfall.

Lovely big room exceeded my expectations

Pleasant, clean, quiet unit w gd facilites. Nr busy road but quiet with nice view over Albany valley.

We have stayed here 3 times now. Stayed on roadside of building this time. Was noisy compared to houses/bush side

Wifi was not strong.

Bed was very small, decor was really old and dated.

Clean and what we needed for two nights. Was very loud outside and the windows are very thin. There wasn’t enough cups for the three people who stayed in there and all the cutlery was mismatched. Served it’s purpose though.

Fit for purpose ,I just needed a place to sleep for one night at the start of a work trip north. Clean, dated, worn, with a very average bed (past its use by date). Would possibly stay again for the same reason.

I liked how close it was to facilities and eateries. Bathroom and kitchen area nice but no milk to go with tea and coffee. I did not like the state of the sleeping area. Very dated and bed not up to scratch. No spare pillow or blanket. Tv reception shocking

Great location easy access to lots of food options. The rooms are very old- lots of wear and tear. There was no free wifi. Kitchenette was adequate and shower was powerful.

Great place to stay with lovely service and very accommodating.

Good position for us visiting family in Mairangi Bay. 6 minutes away. The receptionist was welcoming and allowed us in early. Lovely to have an underground parking spot, with a lift to our large, spotless room. As 80 yr olds, we liked the comfortable beds, the accessible shower and blockout drapes. It was very quiet, away from the road. I would have liked a bedside lamp.

Room was tidy. Staff were good.

The air-conditioning didn't get cold. I'm qualified in air-conditioning so know it was likely low on refrigerant. Asked the manager to look at to confirm it was not getting cold so we could move to one of the many vacant rooms that hopefully had working air-conditioning. Got back for the second night and no one on duty (Christmas day) and no room change or working air on another humid night. I had to borrow a fan from friends to have a chance of sleeping.

The reception an customer service was really friendly and professional

This was a cheap stay for Auckland accommodation so I really can't be too negative. It's a no thrills Motel ie no SKY, you pay extra for wifi and the rooms could be updated a little on the plus there is the Spa pools. But otherwise a pleasant stay, the gentleman on desk was nice and the hotel itself wasn't noisy nor was there anything surrounding that was a noise or disturbance issue. There's a Korean BBQ restaurant next door or it's a 5 minute drive to Albany Mall.

The staff are beyond friendly and helpful, it really makes it a great place to stay.

The person booking us in wasn’t very personable, no milk in the room for drinks, checkout was 10am, cleaner opened door at 9.45 and went to walk into the room, fortunately myself and my wife were dressed also we could have been having’special’ time together, not acceptable to do that.

Staff were very helpful and accommodating. Had an issue with a few areas that weren't cleaned properly and they made allowances for that. Parking was very nice - below the building, so shaded and out of sight.

I had a corner room that was light and bright. The room had everything one needs for a comfortable and hassle-free stay, and there were excellent parking options. Proximity to a range of amenities and the motorway. I highly recommend the Albany Rosedale Motel.

It was close to restaurants

Great beds and shower just needs a make over to modernise, everything looks tired. Good location close to the hockey that can easily walk.

Very tidy accommodation, conveniently located for a hockey tournament, a walk to the venue

Great location for what I needed. Parking on site, check in was fast. Limited options for dinning but plenty of option near by. Would stay again.

Very short business trip. Perfect location and facilities.

Great location and price; kitchenette needed some maintenance. Hallway smelt of cigarette smoke 😪

It was convenient to where we needed to be, clean, with good parking underneath but very tired and we had to ask for bedside lighting. Heating thermostat was in a dark corner and needed a torch to see the controls. Also it must be the last place in the country with no free Wi-Fi !!

Friendly, lovely staff. The cleaner does an immaculate job. Rooms were well maintained. Facility is safe, secure and easy driving to local eateries, beach and the mall.

The Korean BBQ restaurant next door was a pleasant surprise

Dirty greasy sofa in reception area was not a good first impression, however room was clean. In house Korean restaurant (not tried as only light food wanted) plus immediately adjacent 4 or 5 generally fast Korean food shops were the only walking distance options. Two wi-fi options offered, neither of which would stay connected one floor up and 20m from reception, despite receptionist's assurances. Fortunately, plenty of data available to hot spot from my cell phone.

Liked my view, the pools and the dining options available. My room was fine but a friends room had a very dated duvet cover with holes it it.
