The gentleman running Sequoia is quite nice. The room was comfortable (we had a private ensuite, note that hand soap is not provided). The kitchen is well equipped with lots of seating. We weren’t able to sit outside to eat our breakfast as there were a number of chain smokers sitting at the outside kitchen table. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay here again

Nice cheap stay

A great 2 night stay. Rooms are basic with everything you need. I had no issues. Wifi was good too and the hosts are lovely! They try their best!

6/10 Good

Convenient location for a night before catching morning ferry, but do bring ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper as is located on main roundabout into Picton so freight trucks braking as they head past to the ferry in the middle of the night can be disruptive.
