Everything and friendly Staff
Stayed in room 103, the room was just right for my stay, stayed 2 nights, and was able to park my car right outside the room.
Just the one noisey truck that went past in the morning.
Location no longer has the pub across the road
Nothing
Well located and friendly staff
Jolly Farmer gone
cockroachs, a TV that didn't wk
Cleanliness, location, staff.
Side bed light with no bulb, plug to the kettle not close enough - had to move kettle on top of microwave to function. Socket access to plug the iron not near enough.
Great location if you have business in South Auckland, friendly helpful staff
room was great , beds excellent.
parking is a little tricky. The shower in 103 needs attention asap.
The location, value and great bed.

I stayed in an upstairs unit, there are stairs from ground and up one floor. The property is dated, BUT! it has everything you need and exceptionally clean! I’ve stayed in hundreds of properties over 30 years of travel for work and the water pressure for this establishment is the best! Soooo strong! The bed is comfortable, all linen super clean, kitchenette crockery a bit of a mismatch but everything still there! Coffee & tea condiments and little punnets of milk. Friendly and attentive staff and definitely value for money! No noise between rooms as I think all walls, floor cement based. Huge closet/wardrobe and great heat pump. Check in was super quick! Paid using booking online payment portal. Rooms are very spacious as well as bathroom.
This is not the owners fault, but construction is happening right across Drury, along motorway and township, so there is noise throughout business hours, however if you turn the TV on, you can’t hear a thing. Window & door locks may need improvement for security purposes! If hotel guests parked their vehicles properly, there wouldn’t be such an issue arriving or departing the hotel, some people have no courtesy for others, not the hotel staffs role to police this, this is common sense! Hotel is on main road, so traffic is heavy throughout business hours, most hotels in the Papakura/Karaka/Drury area run along the same main road.
Clean and comfortable
Friendly staff and clean tidy room
A few things that need repaired in the room
Accommodating late check-in
Windows were hard to close
The location and the staff were great.
Front parking was tight but a lot of parking at back.
Nothing at all
The pictures don't match the reality of the rooms. Kitchen facilities poor.Sliding door had mould and was not clean. Overall the place was very run down.
The towels were awesome, thick and clean
The stove top very old and stained and the door to bathroom hard to close
Close to function we attended
Not clean
Very clean. Shower pressure was great. Parking available outside your unit.
Indian resturent 2 minutes walking distance
All was good
the staff where great location near where we needed to be
the rooms was so unclean the curtain looked like some ome had thrown uop not clean .. water pouring form the aircon smelt mouldy
The room was clean and the bathroom was updated.
Overall the motel needs some upgrades/ renovations.
We were upstairs, and enjoyed the unit. The bed was firm, and suited us well. The bathroom was clean, and the shower was practical. The room was large, with space for storing clothes, and a table for the computer. The location was close to the main motorway into Auckland. It was a 5 minute drive to Papakura to shops.
There is a lot of building work happening around this location, roading, new subdivisions. This means that there is a lot of construction noise and machinery work opposite the motel. This is a busy road, so the traffic only quietens in the later hours of night.
Close to motorway
Noise from people staying upstairs.
Room was ok
3 ppl in a room and only had 2 towels I went to the office rang bell 4 times and still No Answer, 8am sunday morning cleaners in room above us vaccuming walking around pretty noisy
We will be back
Everything was perfect
The room was tidy. This room included air con, private kitchen and bathroom facility.
Car parking space was too congested at the far exit way for SUV's, ute's. Very hard to get in and get out. The motel was on the main road. Even it was weekend, still I didn't sleep well cause of the running vehicles on the road at night time.
Size of room, all home comforts
Road noise from very busy road
Good location, great bed
Stairs.
The price was very competitive and easy check in. Friendly staff
Nothing
Noisy road, noisy construction site opposite shaking the building, old inside, no hanging space for clothes, security safe didn’t work, damp smell in cupboards. Yuk
Everything
Room was reasonably good
The noise from the people upstairs
Nothing
Very friendly and accomodating staff, very clean unit, older building but still a great place to stay.
Comfy bed, clean unit, convenient location
Size of the room was good n comfy bed
Needed a deep clean
Had everything you needed & was close to where I needed to ie Bombay & Papakura train station
The parking was a bit difficult, as it was on a slant. Otherwise it was ok
The air conditioning pump rattled and drummed through the room even when turned off
the bed is very comfortable, and the shower has great water pressure. There’s also a bakery shop right next door, which is very convenient.
Good staff
Bad loud guests
Staff were amazing, unit was comfortable and clean.
Parking, very tight. Needs more of an angle to drive in and out smoothly.
Location, price, friendly staff
Cockroach in bathroom, walls in bathroom need wiping can see all the dirty water marks down the walls by towel rails. Some cutlery not clean.
Space was good, but could do with more comfy chairs to watch TV.
Windows don't close properly, allowed road noise to come in.
Location was good, staff were friendly & helpful and everything was clean & tidy
Place is a bit tired & dated
Clean, comfortable with working A/C bliss on a very hot day

It was very clean and tidy, everything you need. Amazing shower pressure. Nice and quiet, easy check in
Stay was great 👍
Size of room
Could hear people walking above
Clean room , good location ,and friendly staff!
Its what was expected for an off the motor way accommodation. Bedding didn't seem the cleanest, maybe an upgrade in furniture would have been good.
Location was central to why I looked not far from venue. Very clean first impression
More option in food avaliable no brochure avaliable on what's avaliable in area Cafe Restaurant etc
Good value. Clean. Nothing fancy but for a clean cheap comfortable place to stay it was great
Driveway is a bit tight
Perfect loca
The roof inside needed painting
The location was handy for the plans I had
Cleanliness. Big spider webs, kitchen bin dirty. No extractor in the bathroom. No power points in the bathroom. No full-length mirror. Bathroom mirror damaged.
Pretty basic accommodation, friendly welcome and it was reasonably clean. Good water pressure in the shower.
A good property with all necessary facilities and at an ideal location for our trip
Nil
1. The rooms were cleaned daily. 2. The staff were friendly.
1. The noise from the road was intrusive. 2. If the room above you was occupied the noise from them walking around was loud. 3. The rooms were dated and the utensils were minimal.
Good location to main highway
Road noise and head lights

Friendly service, accommodation clean and tidy
Friendly staff, very accommodating and helpful
It was convenient to book and stay on the southern side of Auckland to carry on our trip heading south the next morning. Easy to get on and off the motorway. Owners were friendly and the cleaning lady too. Room was clean and comfy. Had an aircon unit and all basic amenities.
Had no idea that the room was upstairs. Also the room itself had been upgraded and looked great but the toilet slider door really needs replacing as it wasn't lockable and wasn't fitted on a slider rail at the bottom so door would push/blow open. Not a big fan of the small individual milk pottles which is lucky to hold a teaspoon of milk though. But glad we had some coffee and sugar.
Room was clean and met expectations
other motel occupants could be noisy at times
