All staff were friendly and helpful. The apartment was clean and a great layout. The second bedroom was close so ideal for our toddler to stay in.

The standard 2 bedroom apartment serviced our needs and requirements during our stay and it was much larger than we expected which was pleasing. We loved that the apartment had cooking facilities, a large fridge, dishwasher, a washing machine and dryer, plus 2 bathrooms with 3 girls is a big bonus. The balcony had a great view of the...

"This hotel suited our needs. It was clean, in a good location, had plenty of useful amenities, had a great pool and friendly staff. However, if you are looking for flash....this is not the place. It is very tired and probably needs an upgrade. If you are looking for a safe, basic place to stay with a BBQ area and pool then this place is okey. We would probably stay again if ever we are back in Cairns. "

"The woman working the front desk was SO friendly! There was a small shop in the reception area for guests to purchase snacks and goods. Our room was very clean and the air conditioning worked great! The coffee and tea station in the room was very nice as well. The only thing I have to say is that there are some glass slits at the front of the room for guests to open and close like windows. It was very easy to hear other guests and people walking by because of that. But our neighbors were...
