Karen, 9-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This property was perfect for our family. It was close enough to town, foreshore and shopping districts to be able to walk there with ease. Kids loved the pool and the accommodation had everything we needed. The hosts were friendly and helpful. Would definitely book another stay here.

Anita, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Good position in the city.

Hotel was in a great position in the city and was quiet. Checkin was excellent and run by locals. Aircon would’ve been better positioned in the bedroom. Average accommodation for a cheap price.
Sindy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Centrally located in the heart of Cairns. Affordable. Room was big. Staff were helpful. Locally owned and operated
Sukhjit, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Spacious room, great location right in heart of CBD. Walkable to esplanade, lagoon and to local Woolworths. About 15 mins from airport with taxi. Room had mini fridge with tea/coffee/milk and a microwave. Easy checkin and was able to leave to leave our luggage after check out before taking ferry to next destination. Great value for money and super friendly and helpful staff.
Elizabeth, 2-night trip

Not ideal for single women to stay there - not secure
Debbie, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

Definitely will be staying there again. Enjoyed our stay and great price.
Angela, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very central to everything. Train and big shopping centre only 10 minute walk. Woollies 5 minute walk. Waterfront less than 5 minutes. Heaps of eateries there. Even though we had late checkin (after 5pm) easy to get our key and gate code. Apartment had separate bedroom. Ensuite good size with walk-in shower. Nice hot shower.Kitchen has microwave, kettle, small fridge and few dishes. No cooking elements which we knew before we stayed. Maria very helpful and friendly. Good accommodation at reasonable price. Only downside was the towels very thin. Would stay there again.

Perfect for our quick stay. Beds were 5 star, so comfortable and perfect for our quick layover. Staff were very helpful with our late checkin. Rooms were dated but the price reflected this so this was not an issue at all!

NORIMASA, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

For the price it was well suited! Very basic, comfortable beds, good hot showers. The staff was fantastic! Very helpful. Stained bed sheets, dirty floors and all the surfaces need a good clean wiped!, toaster not working. Other than that, its a OK place. friendly, and helpful.
Juliani, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Sad to say, pretty much everything in the room was broken - fridge door shelves; the single bed (!!); the ac was a really old and held together with gaffa tape lol there was no housekeeping at all. The Reception was not open once during our stay…
Steve, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location was great, lots of restaurants at walking distance. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Martha, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The bed and pillow covers didn't appear clean. The pillow had an odor because of past usage. The toilet did not have a toilet roll holder next to the WC and the roll had to be manually picked every time for a clean. The reception staff were helpful though when we contacted them to inform of our late arrival.
