Grange Motel

Handy to airport, & Manukau City.

Office was closed when we arrived at 6.20pm; had to ring for access via key held in security box; no milk was available; tv was not working, and fridge had been switched off at power circuit board.Motel manager arrived to “fix” problems over an hour after we had gained entry to our unit.We had not been informed the office would be closed upon our check-in time as we had notified.Manager said he had gone to the gym, which is why the office was closed!!

Friendly welcome. Kitchen well stocked. Supplied soap/shampoo. Comfortable bed and room.

The place was a little loud in the evenings although it was only for a short while.

Bed was big and comfortable

Walls paper thin so very noisy from neighbours.Noisy road Got little sleep because of noise Old worn out fittingsDark dingy roomToo hot - open windows and more noise !!!!!

Very friendly and helpful staff. My room was like a one-bedroom apartment, with a convenient and equipped mini-kitchen, plus a small outdoor sorcery with a picnic table, where I had my dinner. As a visitor, I couldn’t quite read the neighborhood, which seems a somewhat unusual mix of residential, commercial, and industrial. But they provide you with information on things of interest nearby, such as a night market. And there’s a mini-mart and take-out Indian restaurant just across the street. Bottom line — convenient!

Nothing. It’s a ways from city center, but convenient to the airport and a good getaway location, particularly if you’re headed south of the city.

Clean and well appointed. Helpful member of staff who met us and showed us around despite our late arrival. Bed had a very nice mattress. The toilet paper was of notably good quality. Not something I’d normally comment on! The slightly idiosyncratic decor was fun.

The shower is a little tricky to get to the right temperature. It’s fine once you’ve found exactly the right point.

Very nice staff.

Old property, road noise.

The rooms were a nice size with the perfect bed configuration for our family of four. The place was super clean and just what we needed after a long day of travel.

The pillow on my son’s bed was really not ideal. It was uncomfortable and filled with something like polystyrene beans?

Great location, clean and comfortable

Very comfortable Clean and welcoming Friendly staff

Clean, basic room

Kitchen area could be improved, as could the curtains

The staff were very helpful and friendly

It was noisy with other residents outside our room at midnight talking loudly and making vehicle noise

Old property but being done up. Staff where very friendly and helpful

Very clean, well presented rooms. Had all the amenities required and friendly staff. We stayed in Room 1.

The receptionist was very, very lovely! The studio was very comforting and had homely touches. Fresh linen and towels, which got changed when we were out. When we walked into the room they had opened the windows for us and also their was a fresh smell of incense.

Some of the dishes, utensils and cooking ware was dirty/not cleaned properly. Unfortunately got a sore back from the bed.

Great location for our purposes.Very friendly and welcoming.

With the smooth tiles in shower, as an older couple, found it very slippery. Maybe a mat in there would help us. But it didn’t detract from our stay.

Room was comfortable enough, good size and clean.

A bit of road noise from the local village idiots sharing their crap music with anyone who didn't want to listen to it. To be fair to motel it was Saturday night, so week day nights may be quieter.

Have stayed in a few motels around Papatoetoe/Mangere many times before. The Grange Motel has been the best by far. Friendly Hosts, very obliging. Unit was clean and just what we needed.Close to family/ Motorway.Have booked to stay there again.Regards Brenda Norgrove

Staff was very responsive to our late check in request and it was a highly friendly experience. We were left with crackers and milk for breakfast and felt extremely welcome after our long flight

-TV had Netflix -We had a private cute outdoor area with a umbrella table and chairs -The staff were very friendly and helpful -Parking was very easy as our room had its own designated parking next to our door-Sofa was very comfortable -Got given a free cup of coffee and offered biscuits by reception on check out which was so lovely

-We had got given another room then what we had booked which was bigger but quite outdated-There was too much furniture everywhere which made it a little hard to get around so we had to rearrange it to make it spacious -The bathroom was tiny and with my biggest fear the toilet right across the shower plus the shower was outdated-The sink in the bathroom was leaking when it was turned on which made a puddle next to the toilet ☹️-The bedroom had a musky smell -Might want to do a checkup on the AC as it looks outdated-The fire alarm made beeping noises every 2mins which was annoying and uncomfortable to try and sleep with
