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.
