A good value budget motel. It was clean, the beds comfortable and the staff friendly. WiFi was a bit sketchy and regularly dropped off from time to time - that’s the only negative. A bus stop about 200 metres away with regular services into downtown Cairns. We’d definitely stay again.

This is a budget hotel - but the beds were soft, rooms relatively clean. There's a bit of chipped paint and out of date styling. You get exactly what you pay for so don't expect a 5 star luxury experience and you'll be fine. Car parking is a bit limited as more units than spots.

Tv not working, rundown bathroom, poor outside noise insulation (birds chirping all night and people walking past). Permanents give it the slum vibe. Comfy bed.
