10/10 Excellent
"Lovely spacious motel in the middle of Picton, conveniently located to everything including the ferry terminal. The staff were very helpful and after-hours check in was well organized. This is the perfect place to stay the night before catching the ferry to the North Island, especially if you need to park a car!"
