Auckland Newmarket Motel

Good as for what i pay and the location is nice as well

Where do I begin? Check in went ok. While we were getting into our room some loud music started blasting from one of the other rooms. This would be an issue that would go on day and night for the two nights we stayed. It only stopped when my friend yelled from our upstairs window to turn the music off. The room itself was a lounge with a table, couch, single bed and kitchen downstairs and upstairs a room with a double bed and bath room. There beds were so uncomfortable my friends barely slept. There were badly patched holes on the walls, poor home DIY type repairs, new carpet with very uneven flooring underneath, filthy coffee mugs ( we went and purchased our own), uneven amounts of cutlery , no dishwashing liquid to clean what we used, we had to buy our own toilet paper as we were given one roll and were unable to contact staff about more - the 24 hour reception we were told was there was nonexistent. It was advertised that the room would be serviced, it was not. The bathroom was full of home like DIY repairs, paint peeling from the windowsill and a shower over a dirty looking spa style bath. There was no nonslip mat for the bath, which meant, as we had to climb into the bath for our shower, I ended up slipping and hurting my leg and back . There were many cobwebs in the room, we had two tvs and no remotes that worked ( or even matched the tv brands there) several lights bulbs had blown, and the fan to cool the room down was so dusty it couldn’t be used as it was a health hazard. The photos online are very deceiving. We paid $220 a night and would have changed motels if we could get into another one but, we were unable to find anywhere as the city was fully booked due to events on that weekend. All I can say is, don’t go there.

I got there early. .before check in time .i got the keys .all good .A C good .bed perfect.Bus at front gate i would stay there again

Friendly staff and good location. However, the room was grubby and in need of a serious deep clean, none of the cutlery or dishes matched and there nothing to clean them with. It felt more like a camping ground than a central city motel. Due all this we left early and were given a partial refund. I would never stay there again.

When booking this for two work colleagues, it stated it was 4 star accommodation and it looked clean, tidy and modern. The reality was very different!!!

This place is for emergency & long term housing obviously- not for visitors to Auckland. Very noisy people yelling in the corridor and hanging around outside. Dirty bathroom. Didn’t feel secure sleeping at night. Staff weren’t always available in office. Good walk to Westfield. Didn’t enjoy our stay won’t be coming back here.

Property met our basic needs, place to sleep and shower etc. however it appears that the place is also being used for emergency housing, so some people around who were a bit worrying. Parking was quite tight.

We arrived very late and they were awake to receive us. Thank you, says reception 24/7 and they were right.

Great little place that was cost effective and close to where we needed to go
