Do not book!!! These people are the most careless, inconsiderate people that I’ve spoken to in a customer service role. No compassion or empathy, just attitude.
I had to cancel my booking 24hours before my check in. This was due to one member from our group testing positive to covid a day before our flight and the rest of us live in the same household so therefor by LAW needed to self isolate.
The two people I spoke to brushed me off, cut me off and did not once express any concern for my situation, they went straight to “we don’t do refunds or credits unfortunately”. Furthermore went

Loved the hotel just couldn't get in quick enough when we arrived after 9pm. We stood for about 7-6 minutes outside waiting for someone to answer the outside silver box phone.

Great location & affordable rates. The best part was the automated toilet in our bathroom, what a surprise!

It was nice for 1 night. Were had a pleasant stay. The balcony was very small and not really usable with the aircon unit on one side and the room had no view to speak of. But it was much larger than your average hotel room and the staff was very friendly.

Great little self contained apartment. Centrally located. Bed was okay. Everything you need to live for a short while, washer and dryers all appliances you need. Balcony overlooks pool can see ocean from roof area.

The location is central, the rooms are dated and the air-conditioning noisy.
The staff are friendly and there is undercover parking. I only needed an over night stay and being Friday night dined out and enjoyed my evening.

Never got to stay. Unfortunately, due to covid had to cancel booking. Were given 6 months to rebook. As we have been unable to leave the state due to border restrictions asked if we could rebook for a few weeks over the 6 months limit as had to organise other hotels and air flights. No we could not, and have lost our money. When all of our other hotels plus airlines have been much more generous, some until end of 2022 , we felt this was very poor customer service.

Quite simply stunned, I've lived north of Cairns for near 30 years and never thought twice about this place when I stay down here. I'll be staying here from now on. It's well priced, great location, stunning pool and you can cook (easy meals) in your room. Can't say enough.

Was pleasantly surprised with this place, having low expectations. The 1 bed apartment that I had was very roomy for 2 people, and had all the amenities you need for a stay. The rooms are a little outdated, but still comfy and functional. The air conditioning unit was very loud though even on 'low', not sure if just old or broken. And as the unit is in the living room it doesn't quite reach the bedroom so it wasn't as cold at night as I would have liked. Reception isn't 24 hours here, and if you're going on boat trips then it's hard to ever catch anyone but I emailed and they replied very quickly

Fabulous place to stay at while in Cairns. Great Kitchen bathroom and bedroom 2 Tvs one in bedroom. Lots of electronic gear such as Curtains fans and lights with dimmers. 1 second to pool if you are om bottom room. Excellent place to stay. We only had to get toilet fixed and was fixed. Overall great staff and friendly.
