Clean and comfortable.
Comfortable, clean and quiet. We had stayed elsewhere on the main rd into Picton previously and it was extremely noisy.
An older style motel, but freshened up and bathroom renovated.
Great cooking facilities, if required.

Good space and location
Friendly staff.
Good size room, plenty of space.
There was an outside seating area at the back of the room.
Close to the town and ferries but far enough out to be quiet.
There was no where to put your own stuff in the shower and the shower pressure was lacking.
