Guest Reviews
- Lisa (6/5): - No Everything
- Laniana (2/5): If your desperate - The parking area is horrible for large vehicles. Part of the drive way is a narrow bend, and when I got to the where my room was there were no car parks and not enough space for me to turn my ute around. Backing back out the narrow bend is shit. The pool is empty and room is basic. Not worth the price they charge. I dont recommend the place.
- Alice (8/5): - Convenient for a gig nearby, clean and comfy. Furnishings a bit dated but grand for a night. Also not many food options for dinner in the area.
- Gray (2/5): Disappointed - Situation of motel was fine for what we were in Auckland for. This motel should say that they are an emergency housing motel . The showers were Luke warm cold by the second shower. Also didn't drain the water just pooled in bottom of shower tray .Bed uncomfortable and pillows to hard .Update the photos on the booking page . Will not stay there again .
- Storm (10/5): -
- David (2/5): Yuck... - The location suited my needs. The place is a dump. The photos are nothing like reality in fact they are blatant lies. Do not waste your money and stay here. How they are still on Booking Dotcom is beyond me they need to be removed immediately.
- Margaret (8/5): -
- Sharn (7/5): -
- Yama (1/5): -
- Trixie (10/5): - Handy to work Nothing
- Raiha (3/5): Bad Kama - Nothing the service was terrible first time I felt i needed a bed so it had to do Everything pretty picture from front but go dow.n driveway what a shambles nothing like the picture.really disappointing. No park manager didn't care well she didn't know. And for that price gosh I've stayed in cheaper facilities than that & the service us better the facility is better.
- Elizabeth (4/5): Horrible. I do not recommend for the price. - The closeness of where we needed to be The shower was blocked. Full of hair. Our complementary milk had expired, our tv only worked for 5mins.
The remote batteries were flat.
- Sarah (9/5): Great price, lovely staff, comfortable stay - We had the end room, it was quiet, great size and value for money The shub was dated but water pressure was great and the bathroom was a reasonable size, towels were soft and fluffy
- Yokona (8/5): -
- Steve (2/5): Don't stay there - The location was good It was mixed with social housing, which should not be allowed. So we had no idea we'd be staying next door to loud arguments and domestics both evening and morning.
It was not cleaned properly, something from the previous guests was still on the rim of the toilet.
Spider webs and cob webs everywhere.
No kitchen plug to wash dishes.
Guests should be warned when they book that they are staying in a social housing motel. I
- Richard (1/5): absolutely horrible experience and greatly overpriced …people in and out of cars in early hours …emergency homed people - nothing clearly an emergency housing motel…overflowing rubbish bins outside …cockroach’s ….wasp nest in bathroom ceiling light …swimming pool empty
- Angela (2/5): - The lady who checked us in was friendly Pool was empty. Whole place needs an overhaul
- Jonathan (7/5): -
- Gaylene (5/5): Our stay was fine - The location suited the reason for my stay. The room smelt musty and wasn't as big as I thought. The state of the motel and room is quite dated.
- Jet Lee (10/5): - no aircon i expect the pool the last time we get check in
- Alifeleti (4/5): - Location good, Too expensive for 4 night more than NZ$800.
- Santana (7/5): -
- Ranjit kaur (1/5): Hated it . Waste of money $200 and stink shit place - Nothing at all . There were Cockoroch in the fridge , water cylinder leaking . Leakage in the room . Cockroach in the fridge .
- Piper (7/5): Ok - Handy location. Nice staff.
- Holden (10/5): -
- Marjorie (1/5): - The bed was comfortable The pool wasn’t available no air conditioning in the rooms
- Paul (6/5): -
- Czars (10/5): - Great place
- Kenneth (10/5): -
- nzaqua (4/5): - Comfy bed Very noisy permanent residents all night - adults shouting, kids screaming, cars coming and going, doors slamming...
Lots of small things that could easily be rectified - no chopping board, no hand towel, no tissues, only a part roll of toilet paper, broken shower head, no bedside lamp.....
- Sarah (5/5): Staff wonderful, location definitely suited, but hotel it self was disappointing. - The location suited us perfectly. The staff were lovely, and extremely helpful. The pool was not operational, which was a key reason for booking the hotel, other than the location. The kitchen utensils and plates were ok, but the pots and pans were old, slightly rusted, and not safe to use. The photos on the website do not reflect the current condition of the hotel. There was no air conditioning,
- Tarryn (4/5): Wouldn’t recommend to others - Location worked out well for us and they were accommodating for a late check in. First impressions is that the property was not like the photos. It was really run down and appeared to have emergency accomodation there. When we left in the morning, there were young kids riding scooters and playing around vehicles in the carpark, including a young baby crawling underneath our Ute.
When we arrived, the room was hot and only had 1 fan for two sleeping areas. Room was dirty, we found an empty wine bottle, RTD can, dirty glass and AirPods under the bed in the lounge, there were also cracks in the walls.
- Sue (6/5): -
- Bill (7/5): -
- Matthew (5/5): - Good location. Small room.
Shower pressure good but shower attachment loose so pointed at the floor.
No water in swimming pool
No air conditioning.
- keith (1/5): -
- Holly (8/5): - Good value for what i paid for No air con in room
- Penny (7/5): - Very quiet and handy to everything. Room was a bit tired. Clean, but dated bathroom facilities.
- Debbie (9/5): Great fora short stay - My sister stayed and found the hotel to suit her requirements, Very handy location, clean and comfortable We were satisfied
- Mulyani (6/5): Average - The location was useful and good for where I needed to go It is advertised that there is a private outdoor pool for use which is the main reason of choosing this place. However when arriving to the property ,we have found that the pool was empty and not useable. Not very happy for that.
- Michael (7/5): -
- Alex (6/5): Avondale motor inn - Location for our trip to auckland, Smart tv, Shout out to lady who serviced our room, and helped remedy afew things Saw a needle out our back door, some appliances that didnt work
- Calvin (6/5): , - . .
- Bryan (6/5): Our stay was ok but our room missed the finer points - Room was tidy and looked recently painted. The net curtains in the lounge and 2nd bedtoom were partly hanging off, the light in the main bedroom didn't work and the TV had no sound, this was corrected by the receptionist. The advert on booking.com showed a swimming pool full of water but the pool,was empty.
- Togiamafisi tim (6/5): We had a nice time at the hotel - The size of the 2 bedroom appartment, Getting out from hotel ,main road very busy
No aircon
- Kalo (1/5): Would never stay here again and will be making sure everyone I know doesn’t stay here either - Terribly place Pictures don’t match online. Not very clean and bed is very uncomfortable. Pool is broken the ad is completely different to what u get.
Receptionist is rude.
- Binzegger (4/5): -
- Ray (6/5): -
- Gemma (8/5): Great stay for family groups - Lovely staff and great room Beds abit hard
- tawhirangi (10/5): - Very cosy and convenient location
- Romolo (10/5): Excellent - Was very clean and close to function that i was attending over the weekend.
- Sheryl (9/5): - Noisy neighbors
- Nicola (8/5): - Comfortable bed
- Awhina (8/5): - Rooms where nice & comfortable Could do with a proper clean, and the outside surrounding was quite a mess
- Alifeleti (7/5): -
- Don (4/5): My stay was comfortable but the room was small and not what I expected. - Location to work was good. The accomodation is tired, and required repairs. It was lacking simple requirements like milk and toilet paper. The photo's of the site make it look better than it really is.
- MARY (8/5): - Location was perfect, and room was clean and reasonably comfortable for our needs. Motel needs to upgrade bedding and facilities as they didn’t exactly reflect what was shown on the website.
- Vivien (4/5): Bit tired - The beds were clean and the staff friendly. It is very central and easy to find. We chose it because it had a pool but there was no water in it. The carpet and couch were stained. Needs some updating. Photos on the website don't match reality.
- Rollo (10/5): -
- Louise (4/5): - Friendly and helpful staff. Booked for 4 people but only 3 provided for and I had to make own bed on couch. Property is sufficient but quite rundown and lacking in areas.
- DayTrip12184261333 (2/5): Our terrible, stinky experience. - This place was a little bit below expectations and photos. Online, this motel looks lovely and clean but in reality it is a bit of a dump. There were stains on the floor, the shower sprayed all over the bathroom, the dishes smelled funny and all together the room had an unpleasant smell that smelled like curry. We even found various different bugs such as cockroaches and spiders. Although the people were very nice, I do not recommend this stinky motel.
- Rebecca (7/5): Comfortable bed. Nice and quiet considering busy traffic on the road. - Location suited what we needed it for.
- Juelz (1/5): - The floor was dirty and it looked like it didn't vacuum and dirty plate
- Malcom (5/5): - location 4 nights two towrls no tea towels no extra pillows or blanket only two tea bags
- Caroline (7/5): Cheaper accommodation, and you do get what you pay for. - It is an older motel, and it's facilities are not the latest or greatest, but you don't pay as much for it as you do other places. It is easy to get around when based there, Wi-fi was acceptable, and it was quiet (actually stayed Monday through to Thursday nights). Water pressure for showering was good. I was originally worried that it may be cold, but found an extra blanket that made all the difference. TV was pretty ordinary, and was quite a small screen. Reception wasn't consistent, and it was difficult to watch at times. Not the most comfortable of beds, and only 2 pillows, so not much to choose from if you have definite preferences!
- Seumanu Jeff (7/5): - Location Curtains were not blacked out
- Scott (10/5): - Very comfortable room.

- Stuart (6/5): - Adequate for my purpose
- Sesh (5/5): We only stayed 1 night, the accomadation was alright for just a sleepover. - Location was good for what we wanted to do in the area. Not worth the price we paid for.
Kitchen utensils not enough and in poor condition.
- Dorothy (6/5): Adequate - Clean and tidy room but no cooking faclities and up alot of stairs but staff did help.

- Margaret (8/5): - Reasonably priced. Very clean

- Sheryl (6/5): - Just an average motel.
- Wendy (7/5): Good -
- Wendy (6/5): Convenient for our situation, reasonably priced. - Two separate rooms as well as a kitchen. Good bathroom and great shower. Had to unblock the basin due to clogged hair. No movies on TV. Thin curtains on doors let in too much light. Booked it for the promotional photo with lovely pool. Reality was not the same- tired building and pool growing grass, not used for a longtime I’d say.

- Naera (4/5): Was okay - It was clean, there was a bedroom No full length mirror, shower head coming off the wall. Bright light coming through curtains drive through area very small
- Brianna (7/5): Good - Nice room, perfect size for the 2 of us for a night! Pool was empty and not running while we were there, would have loved a swim.
Also the room was very hot as we woke up, only a couple small windows and no aircon
- Tanya (4/5): Disappointing -
