Disliked: Staff & service
Not good for families specially if you have kids
The staff were unfriendly and rude, which made our stay uncomfortable from the start. Guests are expected to clean their own rooms, and there’s no room service at all, which felt below basic standards.
At one point, my three-year-old son poked holes in a couple of coffee milk pods. Instead of addressing it calmly, the manager confronted us in an aggressive and accusatory way, claiming we were disrespectful to the staff. It was an upsetting and unnecessary escalation that only made things worse.
Parking was close to the unit, it was quiet, accessible to cafes and facilities, would recommend

Property was okay, but I paid for carpark space (was included with my Expedia booking) and was told I couldn't use the motel carpark and would have to park on the street (timed parking). The motel had a few un-used spaces for the night!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
An ok stay. Staff very helpful. Shower cubicle was an accident waiting to happen bcs of high step up & in. Could be solved with a handrail on wall outside cubicle.
The parking was a hassle even though we new at the start we did qualify for parking spot
Whole unit could do with upgrade
Toilet seat is extremely loose
Convenient location, easy parking. Room was hard worn. Everything worked but needed a full refurb to reach the standard of other similarly priced hotels and motels we stayed in across NZ.
Our unit was spotless and very accommodating with lots of amenities. We stayed for three nights and unfortunately two of the nights included Friday and Saturday. Loud noise, often shouting from intoxicated patrons a few doors down kept us awake until midnight.
We stayed for two nights. The motel is conveniently located on the Main Street. The room is outdated with old decor and peeling paint on the walls. The bed was very comfortable.
The location is ideal on Main street yet bery quiet. Manager gave good tips. Right by excellent happy hours and great meals
The hiking around Picton superb. Only thing i wish done cruising Marlborough Sounds. World class
We had a great stay. The motel is located on the main street. There's heaps of restaurants, cafes and shops all within walking distance. We were able to park up within the motel no problems. We will stay here again.
