I spent just two nights in Picton; and it was great. Although, a bit of a walk from where I needed to be, the staff was friendly and helpful. The room was warm, comfortable and had anything I could need and more!

It isnt too bad. Probably could do with a spruce up. I probably would not stay again but mainly because of fhe noise. There was a lot of thumping and banging in unit above us and there a was a lot of noise from trucks and cars. I didnt sleep well, although bed was clean and comfortable. The ofher thing was we were freezing cold and couldn't figurd out the panel heater. So we were in bed by 6.30 p.m. with the electric blanket on 3. The lady at reception was really lovely

Disappointed
Nothing but a run down motel. Got to room windows open and had to kill at least 10 flies. Rooms needed repair and painting. Stayed in 10 hotels, B&B’s and motels on the South Island and this was by far the worst. Do not recommend. Front desk not very friendly either.
