Good overnighter

Cheap and cheerful stay for an overnight stay in Cairns. Not too far from the CBD, so ok if you don’t mind a 10 minute walk to the main shops. Ideal spot if you have a car, which does have its benefits too.

The room was clean and comfortable. We did not drive so can’t comment on parking. We arrived later than expected and front desk was responsive to email and sent instructions, was easy to get in. The property is older but it was fine and we had everything we needed including a comfy bed and working AC Perfect for a budget stay in Cairns

Marie

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The bathroom window was locked open as the exhaust fan doesn't work. The windows from the backpackers hostel next door looked down into it. There was a water stain on the wall between the shower and a bed. There was a smell of mould when you opened the cupboard under the sink and some utensils had mould on them. The full flush on the toilet didn't work and you had to jiggle it for the water to stop running. Lack of sleep due to the hotel being located on the corner of two busy streets (one that led to the hospital so a lot of sirens). One of the driveway gates was broken and it sounded like people were screaming at each in the driveway.
