The photo of the double room on your ad is not the same that we got. The ad showed a living area with full window with a view of the surroundings, we got a small high window as if we're living in a basement. The furniture was not the same either. The bathroom was nice and clean and we appreciated that. Reception was ok, darkly lit and felt like a courier lobby. Receptionist's matter of fact attitude relayed MCentrals indifference to their guests. I would like to think we were the exception but the guests infront of us left unsatisfied after an animated discussion with the receptionist. Our location is the best in Manukau CBD. Safe and secure parking. Has so much potential in terms of customer service and a minor things to improve on.

Property area was convenient to Manukau Westfield, Rainbows End etc. The reception host was lovely and had everything ready on our arrival. The room was like a university hostel with a kitchen and bathroom. The bathroom was tidy and clean, however, the beds were not maintained very well. There were blood stains on the underlay of the sheet which was clearly seen and because we were so incredibly exhausted from our trip, we ended up sleeping on top of the bed without any blankets. Pillows were very well used, luckily we had our own pillows. The kitchen was missing a lot of utensils, the fridge shelf was cracked, dents all over the fridge, dents in the walls throughout. The aircon was a huge washing machine looking thing with a large vent hanging outside the window, the noise from this was incredibly loud. The following day we hoped it would be cleaner, tidier after we got back but the beds were still the same so we booked into another motel. I'm pretty sure the beds had bed bugs as well because I itched really bad after sleeping on it. We tried to contact the host of our dissatisfaction but they were conveniently unreachable.

Location was excellent, close to motorway, bus station, shopping centre, food outlets and supermarkets. Property was very well used and in need of some TLC, bedrooms were very small, the bathroom was ok, and the living area was good. A few cracked floor tiles in the bathroom and 1in the living area. Price reflects the accommodation and if you expect the Ritz, you'll be disappointed. Overall value for money.

Good value!

I had to call for directions to check in since the front door was locked. They checked my reservation and then directed me to the back parking lot where a parking space was assigned to us for extra $. There were 3 of us, but not enough spoons and no bowls to use. There were no chairs at the table. Other than the items listed above, it was perfect for us in location and a great price!

Waste of money! Never again!

Worst accommodation I’ve stayed at (7th floor), rooms are very different from the images they portray on the app. Major downfall is no air conditioning, rooms are super hot and very small, hard to sleep at night with heat, window openings are minimal, the warehouse branded fans were broken, shower was faulty and didn’t stay upright, shower door wouldn’t close properly and banged against toilet bowl (Minimal room), cracks in the floor tiles. Basically a very run down subpar property with minimal maintenance done. For the cost you expect reasonable amenities, not broken, run down, budget amenities. Highly recommend paying a little extra for simple comfort! I wouldn’t even dare to look back twice! Only upside is the location is A+, but this hotel Z-! Do better.

Photos are nothing like the property. Extremely hot and the “air conditioning” unit they provide doesn’t have an outlet so the hot air it blows out just fills the room with heat instead of cold air. No dish sponge and even though the property says the rooms have desks none of them do. All shelves in the fridge were practically broken and some of the handles on the cupboards are falling off.

Convenient place to stay near the airport.

Very convenient place to stay on arrival at Auckland Airport. Spotless apartment. Kitchen equipment adequate for simple food preparation. Maintenance was an issue: The shower rail was broken and the hose leaked so that water pressure in shower was not adequate. Carpet strips not fastened down properly - a trip hazard.
