It is very well situated and easy to find right next to the main motorway from Auckland however there were no eateries that we found close hence the meal cooking ##### Peter Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### K J Feb 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort We did a last minute booking and straight he fitted me my partner and daughter to a room as we couldnt find accommodation close enough to my kids sports event at a good price like here.

You can visibly see that these owners take pride in their business. The cleaning staff were accommodating and friendly. I am going to book again for next weekend as we have a wedding to attend in Pukekohe but will much rather stay at the Colonial Motel. ##### MaureenWoods Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 12, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Friendly people who made us feel welcome. Clean and tidy. Had everything we required as far as amenities were concerned. It was relatively quiet given it was on a main road. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Dec 1, 2019 Nothing, same as others in Papakura, the man always negative to other motels in the area, Only one iron the hole place, you wait until other customers finish. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Nov 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Easy access to motor way, clean re vamped bathroom, friendly manager. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 10, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean and tidy.

Very inconvenient to the motorway. Nice and clean. The man who owns this place is very nice and pleasent. If you want easy motorwar access i recommend this place. During peak traffic times you will need to turn left and then left at traffic lights, do a u turn, turn right at lights then get in correct lane for motorway north or south. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 13, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very good ,easy to find great nice motel.Just what we needed. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 25, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We were nicely surprised at how much actually liked this place.

We will definitely be back. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Dec 27, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities The only reason i booked this hotel is because it promised a free swimming pool to relax in. Me and my daughter had our togs already packed then were told after we booked in that the pool had beem re painted and was empty. No warning before hand and no offer of a discount. I asked about breakfast in the morning as its stated on the motel room wall and the lady knew nothimg about it. We had no barh gowns and no real luxaries except for wifi and a tv and the room was tiny. I wouldnt be complainkmg about this at all if it didnt cost me almost $200\. I have been to much nicer motels for the same price or even cheaper rhan this. Would not recommend ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Graeme Dec 5, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Room comfort #### Look before you Leap No COFFEE in unit, pillows were uncomfortable and free wifi was very weak and kept dropping off so not good to use.
