Very close to town and eating establishments. Visited our stingray friends cruising in and out of the boats and piers. Very close to the Ferries for an early morning sail.

The unit is spacious and nicely decorated. The interior doesnt smell as fresh as it could. Its dark inside. The fridge is so small and low we need to be on our knees to access it. There are no towel rails. No power point in the bathroom for toothbrush or blow dryer. Single glazed only so noisy.

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.

Great Budget Stay in Picton

AAA Marlin is an older property that has been refurbished recently. Older means bigger rooms, bigger bathrooms, and a full kitchen (not just a kitchenette.) Big bed was fairly comfy. Also has laundry facilities and a wee barbeque for guests to use. Friendly staff went out of their way to offer help. Supermarket 7 min walking distance, handy for ferries too.
