Nice room and a great host but the proximity to a major road from the port meant sleeping was impossible! All night the room shook and vibrated from heavy goods vehicles, we got absolutely no sleep.

Definitely top in the town
After a warm greeting from Tracee we were very happy with the quality of the room and amenities. Just a short walk into town for dinner (with recommendations from Tracee) where we had an excellent meal at Sisu. Would happily stay here again.

A perfect stay for ease of catching the ferry or having arrived on the ferry before embarking on travelling on the South Island. We were greeted warmly & the room was well appointed. For us the beds were slightly hard but that’s a very personal opinion as will be perfect for others. Picton High Street was about 20mins walk away & there were good recommendations of local eateries in our room.

Tracee is a great host
All we can say is that Tracee made us feel so at home, that words cannot describe our feelings. It was almost as if you were a family member stopping by. If you stay at the right time in the summer, as were lucky enough to do, you can harvest your own plums/nashi pears, with Tracee's permission of course. We were in the "pet friendly" room, but you would never know any animals had been there. The small amount of messaging we did with Tracee was always responded to promptly and with understanding that things can change when you are traveling. Having said that, no one can be all things to all people at all times. If you have an early ferry crossing, as we did, you are only 6 minutes from either check in. A big plus in our books that's for sure. Needless to say, we would stay here at anytime, if our travels brought us back to NZ
