Property is quite dated; stove was at least 50 years old I think. Had a bit of trouble getting the stove to work but finally got it working. Beds were comfortable. Property is very close to the ferry terminals so convenient. Was an ok option for 1 night.

A great place to stay for getting on the Interislander ferry in the early morning! Comfortable, compact room - it was a studio room with microwave and fridge - no kitchen sink or cooking facilities. Bed and bathroom facilities good.

The unit smelled very musty, as if it needed a complete deep clean. We like older motels, but this one is too dated, and it is way overpriced for this quality (although Picton motels in general are expensive compared to say Blenheim, a nice nearby town). On the plus side, it is quiet and handy to the ferry, and owner helpful re late checkin. We would not stay again.
