Motel 80 in Auckland

Upon arrival I was given my key at the reception which was nice and easy check in. However as we drove to our room, I noticed the 3+ old mattresses to the right of our room, ripped up and dumped in the corner. There was rubbish on the ground and the massive bin outside our room with the lid open. I went in the room with my 2 children and was blown away by the smell. My 8 year old kept saying the room smelt like rat pee. I noticed all the grime caked in the walls and the bench tops. There was 3 incense set up around the room trying to mask the smell... the TV hanging on the wall doesn't even reach the PowerPoint on the opposite side of the wall. There were cardboard air fresheners that you hang on your rear view car mirror on the floor all around the room. And don't even bother trying to look out the window, all that's there is toilet paper, cigarette butts, lots of rubbish and a shed that looks to be a other dumping ground for broken junk and more rubbish. I would highly recommend not wasting your money to stay here as I definitely won't make that mistake again. We left at 6am

Booked this dive a year ago for Coldplay. Arrived for our stay and it no longer exists - knocked down and now an empty lot. Booked through Wotif and they are unwilling to give a refund. I would think carefully about using Wotif in the future as it seems they have no way of covering customers in this situation. On the bright side, the concert was amazing...

If I could give this a -1 I would! We turned up and everything was locked up. Noone was in the office. Eventually someone turned up and gave us a key we went to where our oom was and was absolutely shocked there was a dirty rolled bed leaning up against the wall outside there was rubbish everywhere. The door to our room looked like someone had tried to break in as there was a huge gap where it had been pried open. We walked in and it smelt the floor was dirty the bathroom was mouldy and dirty. We all felt itching like we were getting bitten alive by something 🤢 the remote had no batteries there was some sort of white god knows what all over the wall and cord to the tv. We left after 5 minutes there was no way we were staying there. We are in the process of trying to get a refund as this is totally unacceptable. I don't even know how this place is still aloud to be running it's a health hazard!

Looks NOTHING like it shows on internet...disgraceful room. Head board all chipped with paint missing...room fresheners all over the room and bathroom, I counted 5 in small area. Room was paid for 3 weeks prior so plenty of time to put us in better choice. TV on wall but cord did not reach to outlet!! I had to lift the TV down and prop up on table. Big draft between door and wall so all I heard all night was weather and road...but weather was clear! Possibly wind. Curtains did not fully cover window so anyone could look in!! Non smoking room but loose tobacco in side table and 1 ear plug!! Room clearly states all rooms are sanitised daily...what a joke. Floor on side of bed smelt like rotten mice and it had 2 air fresheners laying over the area...OH MY GOD! What a DUMP!!

When we walked into our first room inside the microwave was a half eaten kfc tray and in the fridge/freezer there was a container of coleslaw. The bathroom was old and dusty/dirty, and so were the inside of the drawers, absolutely disgusting. We did end up changing rooms, in the next room there were only two towels, there were three of us staying in one room. Outside of our room there was a fridge and a TV, they were being drenched in the rain for about 2 days. And the courtyard was over filled with rubbish.

Warning! Do not stay here, photos on their website are not representative of what you get, false advertising! This place will have availability when all other accommodation booked out for a reason, dirty, carpets will turn anything black with dirt that comes in contact with it, owners are running it into the ground any 5 star ratings are fake. Message to the owner: stop taking 100% and putting nothing back into maintaining cleanliness, short cutting on the basics is not acceptable. We are not even wanting to stay let alone use the shower and can't possibly use the bath for our 10month old, we paid $219 for a room as we had no other option. Lastly they advertise SkyTV which isnt available, only freeview.
