“My assessment points to a property struggling with upkeep; some reports indicate rooms need significant upgrades, with concerns about cleanliness and maintenance issues, such as broken fixtures. While the location in Auckland may hold appeal, potential guests should temper expectations given the reported state of repair. In my view, a renovation is essential to bring this motel up to a satisfactory standard.”
