Very friendly, helpful staff. Good location, close to the CBD and Cairns Central. Tidy rooms...There can at times, be car parking issues, but it didn't affect me, as I just walked when I wanted to go into the city... A great value for money place to stay 👌

Staff were friendly. Rooms were tidy, but by no means clean. Our room was definitely better than our friends room. Kids enjoyed the pool, but honestly we spent as much time out as we could. Their photos are beautiful but a little deceiving. Probably just wasn't worth the money charged.

Over priced!! The grounds are rather a mess and the pile of old mattress's thrown in a parking bay was not a good look. The Housekeepers need to learn how to clean mirrors properly, the one in my room looked like it was cleaned with an oily rag.
