Not from Auckland. This was a decision made at the last minute. Since traffic is very bad in akl we had to travel a day & spent a night. For a cheap room, it is what is expected. I booked this motel because it was a 10 mins drive to my 0800 appointment this morning. We had a good sleep.
Very busy area.

Our shower pressure was amazing but the shower holder clip was broken and showering was near impossible. The bathroom extractor fan wasn’t working so steam and odours remain trapped in the bathroom unless aired into the whole room. The fold out couch had stains on the cushions and dipped

I found this motel to be good value for money. My room was clean and to my liking. Even though it was located on a main road, I found my room to be quiet and I hardly heard any noise from either the traffic or from other guests. I would stay here again.
