Unhygienic waterlogged bathroom. This place requires a visit for the cairns health department. Also very unsavoury area. Many homeless sleepers in the street. Liquor bottles and cigarette butts and litter around the front and entrance. Would recommend just about ANYWHERE else.

Excellent hotel. Exceptional staff ready to do anything to meet their guests needs. Like shipping forgotten items from Cairns, Australia to USA on their own time. Just ask yourself, how many hotels do you know that will do this for you!? Also, their transfer from the airport to the hotel and back is cheaper than a taxi!

Pros: clean, very nice staff Cons: shower head was way too low (I am 5.8 and it was coming to my chin, not adjustable, not good for tall people or people with mobility issues), very outdated hotel overall, very thin walls (we woke up at 2am due to the people next door) We would not want to stay here again unfortunately.
