Basic older accommodation, but clean and everything needed. Bed was not very comfortable for me and pillows were like bricks. Very limited onsite parking, but plenty on the streets nearby.

Parking within the complex is very safe and secure. Staff are always friendly and helpfull. Rooms are a decent size with a sink which is a bonus. Its a busy little area so some noise is to be expected when you book in but its never intruding on sleep time that I have experienced. Have stayed here many times a year since 2013 and always go back.

Stayed in a single room, was quite impressed with the layout and how much room there actually was. Very old though although the shower looked new, and had all i needed for a late check in early checkout to catch a flight and for the price. Had a fridge, the bed was comfy enough and there was good lighting. Good location with an onsite indian restaurant or other food options a close walk away. Walls are not sound proof though, i could hear the occupant next door shower, eat dinner and movement which did keep me awake for a while. Would definitely stay there again though. Really like the fact there is car parking and gates get locked at night, good security which is needed in cairns.

The bathroom window was locked open as the exhaust fan doesn't work. The windows from the backpackers hostel next door looked down into it. There was a water stain on the wall between the shower and a bed. There was a smell of mould when you opened the cupboard under the sink and some utensils had mould on them. The full flush on the toilet didn't work and you had to jiggle it for the water to stop running. Lack of sleep due to the hotel being located on the corner of two busy streets (one that led to the hospital so a lot of sirens). One of the driveway gates was broken and it sounded like people were screaming at each in the driveway.
