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.

Donna

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
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.
