The stay was fine overall. The room was small but worked okay for just two nights. Nothing particularly special, but it did the job. The best part is the location, it’s really convenient if you’re planning an early Great Barrier Reef tour since it’s close to the port.

The property was very clean. Very close to the Reef Fleet Terminal for boat trips. There are many restaurants in the area. You can go walking. Friendly staff. We arrived early at the hotel, and they stored our luggage in the lobby so we could go out and explore the area before our actual check-in time.
