Everything was great other than that several customers turned up with large utes and made access to other car parks difficult and risking damage. (Not something the motel could easily control but a problem all the same)

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The area around is a little unsafe. The entrance to the room is a sliding door with the only window to the outside so if you wanted privacy you can have any natural light. No safe deposit box. Internet was very spotty. The laminate on the counters were all falling apart. Very outdated bathroom. Bed was alright but pillows were awful. No coffee maker. For the price they are charging for this place, you are better off somewhere else.

Good choice near airport

The Manukau Motor Lodge was a convenient place for us to stay before returning the rental car to the airport the next morning. The small pool was unheated, but the sauna (15 NZD) was a nice touch.
