It was very close to shopping center and about a 15 minute walk to the the waterfront. Very walkable area and close to restaurents. Cost to airport was about $20 using Uber. It was a bit older property but still met our needs of doing laundry and walking around Cairns to go on tours.

Value for Money
Handy to Cairns Central for all shopping needs. Not near the water (but we didn’t pay for the view). Three stories with no lifts. Ask for the ground floor if stairs are not your thing (32 steps to the top floor!).

For a budget hotel the property is excellent value. It may not be in the best area of Cairns but we felt completely safe and it is handy for the town and train station. The staff are friendly and check in is very easy. We stayed there for 2 nights with-a break in between, the first room was a bit tired looking but was clean with good facilities in the room. The second night the room was excellent and had obviously had a makeover although the shower pressure was very low. We would recommend as a value for money hotel.

The area was quiet, lovely pool and very close to amenities. There was only a little bit of noise when the train went past but that wasn’t through the night so not a problem. Pool could have done with some umbrellas to provide some shade as not really any natural shade throughout the day. The staff were a little rude, when reporting an issue with the TV I was met with a little attitude from a staff member. But other than that the place itself was perfect.
