フェリー乗り場にとても近く便利です。港のまわりには飲食店も充実してました。
部屋にドライヤーがなかったのですが(予約時には設備として記載があったので…)、快く貸していただけました！バスルームは複数あったので特に混むこともなく、快適でした。
朝食はサービスでトーストやシリアル、コーヒー、紅茶等がいただけ、とても助かりました！おいしかったです！平皿やお鍋もありました。最初はどこに何があるか分からなかったのですが、オーナーさんが手助けしてくれました！あと、おそらくキッチンは2つ？あるみたいでした。
オーナーさんは親切で、バックパッカーの宿としてとても良かったと思います！

想體驗一下背包客的酒店，挺不錯，有家的感覺，世界各地的人們聚在客廳，聊天，喝茶，有廚房可供自己做飯。公用衞生間充足，店主態度很好，賓至如歸的感覺。

最後一班輪渡到Picton已經晚上12點多了，提前跟老闆溝通了，她給我發郵件仔細講解如何入住，並等候我們，非常不錯。離碼頭距離太近了，非常方便。

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! ❤️
