Nice welcome by Nicci, found the accommodation to be clean tidy and very welcoming. Great location short walk down to Picton harbour for the ferries and other holiday ideas like fishing or simply going to beaches on water taxis fantastic location, fish and chip shop next door, nothing more can be said. Simple breakfast included, a few bars and restaurants lovely ice cream parlour shopping and a nice supermarket. Parking in the library car park next door or opposite the hotel speak to Nikki about the parking location for traffic wardens.

Great people there but unfortunately found some bed bugs in my room. Maybe from a previous traveler but I ended up sleeping on the floor instead.

Such a lovely, hospitable, hostel. Had all the amenities I needed - and there was even a sink in the room I stayed in. It’s literally a 5 min walk to the beach as well, and is super convenient to get to especially if you are taking the Ferries or the bus into / out of Picton. Thank you for the hospitality! ❤️
