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.

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.

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.

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.
