Arrived and taken to reception for payment. Then taken to main house that had all the windows taped over for painting, deck and walls sanded with dust everywhere. Room smelt damp. As it was and old Villa and original paint on deck, highly likely lead based. So disappointed. Now have to wait for refund through credit card company as refused to stay there.

I booked a family room for 3 nights. On arrival I asked if I could see the accommodation. The smell of rodents is a smell unlike any other & this was overwhelming . I commented to the young man that “you have a mice issue & he said “yes we do.” There was no way I wanted to stay in a house with mice. I explained to the young man that I wasn’t going to stay. As soon as I left the property I made contact with Booking.Com to complain about my experience. They have a live chat option & the woman I dealt with was very helpful but needed to escalate the issue to another customer complaints division. I was promised that someone would make contact with me with some sort of resolution but no one returned any sort of communication from Booking.Com. Thé Villa have charged me the full rate. I am so disappointed . I have been a repeat customer in many of The Booking.Com accommodations I have used over many years. Please don’t stay at Western Spring Villa if you have a problem sharing your accommodation with an unsanitary mice infestation. The…

I was attending an event at Auckland Zoo and this motel is close by. It has everything I could have asked for - very clean, spacious room and bathroom, wifi, tv and free onsite parking. There is a huge park across the road for walks or a run and several eateries within a 15-20 walk. It was really quiet and I had no issues with road noise even though it is close to the main attractions in the area. Would happily score it 5/5 for a more comfortable bed, but will definitely stay here again.

The best accomodations ive stayed in for a team in a long time. We had 7 couples and 1 single, and apart from the family room sharing, each room was ensuited, it was absolutely prrefect. Beautiful old villa, very well presented. Our hosts were lovely, and very discreet, ensuring we had everything we needed to make our stay that much more enjoyable. We were out at our bowling venues for the majority of the time, however when we did return to rest and recoup, the villa was just so comfortable, clean and private. My husband and I will be returning to the villa again if we are in Auckland, hands down the best place to be, location is perfect too.

Unique comfortable accommodation with stunning views from the ridge across the city in the distance. Rooms are spacious, well appointed and comfortable. No SKY TV but use of the kitchen and laundry in the main house. Great parking and just a little bit different.

I chose this motel because of its proximity to the Pasifika festival grounds in Western Springs park. Alas - the event was cancelled. Western Springs Villa is smart and clean, in a peaceful and leafy residential area but it's not very central - you'd need a car if you're staying here although railway stations aren't too far away. A nice choice if you're touring in the area or visiting friends and relatives. It's a 15 minute walk to local restaurants, I was told there was a kitchen in the main part of the hotel but didn't use it myself.

The accommodation is in a lovely quiet setting. The room and bathroom are very clean and cosy. We stayed 3 nights and had to cancel our 4th night and they were so good and didn’t charge us a cancellation fee. Friendly helpful hosts.
