Decent cheap accommodation- about a 15min walk to the Tanks at the botanical gardens in cairns
Laura, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The pool area is amazing we had breakfast included and that was great. Staff shortages/ restaurant booked out, didn't allow us to eat dinner there.
Grant, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Friendly staff so helpful! Location was great to walk or public transport to all of Cairns…. Unfortunately, swimming pool was being cleaned so we couldn’t use it
Jan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was neat and clean, for an aged property. Was value for money. Not a lot of food outlets available in close proximity. Beds felt clean and comfortable, which is the main reason for stay.
Alan William, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Room was a little dated was the first impression. But the bed was comfortable and room was tidy. Plenty of parking space. Staff were friendly and helpful.
jackson, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Central enough and quiet Not very clean. Pretty old and a bit run down
martin, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

OK but at the end of the day you get what you pay for, a bit dated but tidy, pool is good
Blake, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Easy late check in. Cold shower in the morning was a bit sad.
Jackson, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very convenient for one night before flight out of Cairns. Noisy (train at the back) and dirty (used soap and shampoo tube left in shower). The place is very dated but as I said, cheap and nasty for quick stay before a flight out.
1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The property is run down and certainly not $200.00 rooms
Shane, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Very noisy kids constantly running around the complex at all hours, restaurant is closed, no breakfast even though it was advertised, would not recommend staying if you want a peaceful stay

6/10 Good

Could of been a lot better
scott, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The room my brother stayed in had a hole in the wall. Will not be staying here or booking anyone here again.
Loluama, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Bed was very comfortable, shower was great. Cheap nights accommodation. Property was run down & dirty. Booked airport transfers 2 weeks before our stay, refused to take us to the airport when we were leaving so had to catch a cab.
Karina, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice quiet location only issue was no curtains to block out light.
Daryle, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Convenience at a reasonable price.

It was only one night, and it was perfectly adequate. Beds on Castors on a tiled floor are very dangerous. They need rubber grips underneath. Somebody could have a nasty fall, very basic, but very comfortable. They reasonably priced.
Gillian, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

No staff, I left

4/10 Fair

Too many kids running around the place yelling and screaming no adult around to supervise. I don't think I would stay there again
Maria, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The property is a good basic place to stay, close to the airport, but is pretty unkept on the outside and around the pool area. Pool was very clean, but dead weeds, sticks and leaves etc. were lying around. It was pretty clean, but very dated and old. Beds were comfortable though, and overall, you get a good nights sleep for what you pay for. Reasonable rates.
Cherie, 1-night trip
