Location is central, very basic and good value for very basic amenities. However no hot water in the shower in our room, no toaster in the room and the bedroom had no power point for my wife’s CPAP machine. The staff were very helpful with providing an extension cord. Beds very uncomfortable. Great customer service and a Thai restaurant located at ground floor of hotel.

Average stay

This is an older hotel. Close to the beach but in a low end neighborhood and a bit rough. Rooms are big and spacious but AC could only cool a small area. Bathroom floors are slippery if wet. Not really a budget hotel for the price but is a budget hotel.

Visit to Cairns

The room was nice, and the ceiling fan was put to full use. The room had an accessible bathroom that was a “wet room” which was a little strange. Having to squeegee the floor was a little annoying, and the shower head had a mind of its own.
