8/10 Very good! (1,004 reviews)

On the first day we weren’t even provided with hand wash! Only one little bar of soap, not even the usual toothpaste or the complimentary amenities that hotels provided for guests - only a few tissues left in the tissue box, one toilet paper roll for a 5 day stay, we opted to have the cleaner only come once and even then they didn’t even vacuum the floor. No heating available so it gets chilly at night. The hotel itself is quite old and due for some renovations. The staff were generally all very kind, however would not recommend and would not book again purely because of the poor quality restaurant, lack of cleanliness, old and outdated design.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (204 reviews)

Great size apartment with awesome views (top floor). Location was good (about 10 min walk to heart of cairns). Opposite muddies cafe which is a nice spot but always busy. Tip - the Indonesian cafe next door is a hidden gem. Overall great apartment for a family or group of friends. Will stay again with a group or family

Excellent for a family who have been travelling, being able to do laundry and have some down time in the evenings. Location was a bit of a walk, but it helped to get our steps up.
