Easy to find and access. Was able to park outside the door of a ground floor unit. It was on a busy road but was still quite quiet. That is, there was little traffic noise. Separate bedroom was good. Close to the city centre. Short walk to major supermarkets. Great service from staff, particularly with laundry. Sliding door to outside chair and table seating next to grassy lawn. Full cooking facilities.

The room lights were strong and harsh. Options for dimmer, warmer lighting would be better. Maybe some bedside lamps, or change the bulbs in the wall lights over the bed to warmer (yellow) lower wattage.

The owners at Motel 6 were professional and sincere in welcoming us on arrival, the same can be said for the staff, happy, polite and accomodating to our needs. The accomodation was a little dated, but very clean especially in the bathroom and toilet area, the shower was excellent, good pressure, and plenty of hot water. Plenty of tea and coffee with a couple of cookies thrown in too. The bed was super clean and comfy. On a personal note, we have re-booked for two nights this week, so yes we would have no hesitation in recommending Motel 6 to all travellers. Des & Alison

Probably the best Motel I've stayed at. We stayed here to break up our trip from Northland to Auckland, and were very pleased we did. The owners seem to be new and have transformed the place into a comfortable and clean place to stay. The accommodation is well worth the price we paid. The added bonus is the service and generosity of the Motel's staff. They went above and beyond to make our stay a pleasurable one.

My only suggestion would be to update and post better photos of the rooms on booking.com. The rooms actually look much better than the photos.

The lady in reception was friendly and welcoming.She didn't just hand me the room key and point me in the direction of the room. She actually walked me to my room and unlocked the door for me, before handing me the key.The room and bathroom were very clean and tidy. My room was at the rear of the property and I experienced no noise disturbance from the busy road. Several options for food were available near by. I would stay there again.

The host couldn’t have been more welcoming. Her statement was “you are my guests so I will do anything for you” We had some wet weather so our washing was done for us and dried and folded at no extra charge. The room had everything we needed including little treats to make us feel like a home away from home. Everything was cleaned and fresh daily.

I liked the lovely owners and how kind and accommodating they were. Location was close to the all places I needed to go.

Rooms were dated and a bit worn, especially the carepts. It was mostly clean but there were a couple of hairs on the bathroom and shower walls. There was an odd smell coming from the fridge/microwave area and one tiny red stain on one of the sheets. The kettle was also a bit worn.

Value hotel - very comfortable and nicely decorated. The staff were friendly and very helpful and I would definitely stay there again. It was in a great spot close to shops and amenities.

The only let down was the shower as it was not very good - the owner said she was looking at upgrading the shower heads. This is the only part of our stay that was not very good but overall it was a very nice room.

Quite spot, despite it's off a busy road. Close to the supermarket. Nice touches to elevate the interior and very good value for money. Beds were comfy too. Would return here again in future.

Could have been a little cleaner, some side tables had some sticky stuff on.We didn't have enough towels per person. (Basically got two big towels for a family of four....but we didn't approach the office to ask for more, as we were too tired and was late).

10/10 From the moment I arrived at Motel Six everything was flawless. Check-in was smooth, the staff were genuinely warm, and the room was both luxurious and spotless! The service throughout my stay was outstanding—every request was met with a smile and efficiency. Every amenity was top-notch. Motel Six didn’t just meet expectations—it exceeded them in every way. I can’t wait to return.

Staff were awesome - went out of their way to accommodate my partner & I during our stay, which we needed to extend a number of times. They couldn't have been more helpful & kind - including the housekeeping staff. All-round excellent service.

I would have liked to have had access to a vacuum cleaner &/or broom.. as we stayed for a week in the end, but we're not offered room servicing.
