I booked this motel on the basis of price and their internet site/pictures. WHAT A CON!! After arriving from Sydney with my husband and 5 children, we were picked up at the airport with a very mediocre welcome. I hoped this wasn't a sign of things to come. Arrived to a dirty, rubbish strewn entrance. The place was dirty, with... more

I found this place via wotif.com. Thought it sounded and looked okay, and for NZ$78 per night thought I had a bargain. If only I knew then what I know now! I booked online for a four-night stay, and paid up-front at that time for the entire booking (mistake!, though I must say I have had other more successful bookings... more

We arrived in Auckland late on Thurs night via their supplied shuttle which I must say smelled badly of cigarette smoke. On arrival at the office it too smelled this way. As it was dark we were unable to see the condition of the surrounding grounds but upon seeing this in the morning, we were totally dumbfounded. We arrived in... more

There was a shuttle bus to a local restaurant at 6pm, although we were not informed of this when we arrived. The alternative food source was free 'home-delivery' of an unappertising but... more

AN OLD... more

We stayed here one night because we wanted to be close to the airport. We chose this motor inn from the net because it looked basic but clean. The reality was very different from the glossy netsite. The place looks neglected from the entrance. Near the reception area there was a cat litter box. The odour of cat urine was... more

We stayed in a one bedroom family unit at this motel for one night. We had read advertisements and seen pictures in Jasons Accommodation Directory and the AA Accommodation Guide. Both were most misleading. These books state the motel has an excellent in-house restaurant - there is no restaurant!! The pictures showed modern attractive decor. Our room was disgusting. The... more

My wife and I stayed here for one night in Jan 2004. During the night, theives entered our room and stole most of our bags, including all our money, cards and passports. We were not the only ones. The security in the motel was terrible. We noticed the next monring that we were able to open locked doors easily. Whilst... more
