A very clean room, close to the downtown Historic area and the shops and restaurants on Water Street. Sue was especially helpful with touring suggestions and restaurant and coffee shop recommendations. Definitely share a bowl of Salmon stew at the hotel by the wharf; and have dinner on the wharf overlooking the water with its spectacular sunsets - don't forget your camera. Save room at dinner for some delicious ice cream on Water Street. We hope to return soon!

Great place!! Classic “motel” - gotta love the easy drive up to the room. Vince was terrific at check in and recommended several restaurants. We chose The Herring - great fish and chips and a variety of local beers to choose from. Checked out in the morning with more recos for places to stop en route north - Blacks in Harvey - yummy cookies. I’d totally stay at the Picket Fence again. And close to Water st. - either a short walk or a shorter drive so very handy.

Room was spotless, staff were so friendly, ample parking, air conditioning. When my family visits St. Andrews, we would drive by this motel. As a change of pace, we decided to stay a night. It was brilliant! Quiet, even though they were fully booked. So close to everything as well! Definately going to book again..

This place was so awesome. I deer was standing in the lawn area when we got there. Owners were very friendly and helpful. It has an excellant fire/table shaded area on the lawn to hang out at in the evening. Short walk to St Andrews downtown. We are partial to motor inn style hotels where you can drive up to your first floor room exterior door.
