Papakura Pioneer Motor Lodge and Motel

Easy check in and nice place to stay

Stayed 2 nights, very happy

Wasn’t even able to stay! Planed for an early check in at 1pm got rung at 1pm while 10 minutes away saying that was no longer possible. Organised to leave car and get picked up and check into room late. Arrived and rung multiple time to no answer and couldn’t contact anyone. Didn’t feel comfortable leaving car while we went to our concert. Finally had someone text us 7 hours later!! Ended up having to stay elsewhere because of their terrible communication!! Are now making every excuse under the sun as to why they shouldn’t have to refund stay. Stay far away from this place!! Hard to deal with and not worth the hassle!

Nice and quiet. Only there one night and convenient locations

It was clean had kitchette

Overall it is great place to stay and the manager Ruby is great!

Staff was fantastic

Quick and easy booking. Great stay, grateful for their hospitality and looking after my family after a stressful day. When there was an issue, they made sure to communicate this and take charge of the situation which made our stay that much more comfortable.

Loved our stay here, not the flashest of motels but was convenient for our needs and Ruby was an awesome host. A bit of TLC and maintenance should get better ratings.

Excellent staff I have to say. I’m just a fan of how the place is. I’ve paid $232 for two nites I think it’s pricey for the place.

Good accommodation and as expected for price

The long=term people in neighbouring units were noisy at all times of the day and night and showed no consideration for other people. Small children were running around and it was a real hazard when driving in. Check-in was quick, but there was no feeling that it was any more than a business transaction for the managers.

Funny story. I've been going here for quite some time and just assumed I was in the same room. The new owners were very friendly and said everything was ready. I parked and went into the unit changed into comfortable clothes and had a coffee. 20 minutes later my friend turned up and she did the same. We were watching tv and this man boldly opens the door and walks in. He got a fright and commented the motel gave him two women as well? We laughed and I checked my key and it said 5 not 4 and yes you guessed it we were in the wrong unit.I profusely apologised and gave him my key and said to him "I should've gone to specsavers". He laughed and the neighbouring units cracked up as well. Needless to say everything turned out ok.

Life was busy at Auckland Airport so I had to go further out and found this hotel It turned out to be a very good find at a very competitive price.

Only stayed for one night, found the owner very freindly and helpful, main thing I noticed was how clean everything was, the bathroom/shower was spotless. Very good value.

The unit was unacceptable with food remnants, used cutlery, etc. down the sides of the settee. The shower unit in the bathroom was filthy - black soap scum around the base of the shower doors and on the soap holder!! At 9.30 am tradesmen were banging on the wall of the adjoining unit as they carried out repairs.

The room smelt musky, there was no shelf in the shower. No power point in the bathroom. I think it was over priced.

it was really some where to sleep and we didn't hear any road noise

We enjoyed our stay the owners were also very pleasant people

At last we have fond a good Motel in Auckland. We have stayed at more than 10 motels in Auckland and all of them were disgusting. The Papakura Pioneer Motor Lodge and Motel was nice a friendly, warm, clean and quite, we will be staying again.
