I was a late check in so didn’t really deal with any staff. Although I was emailed the details of how to collect my key out of hours. Room was ok, but didn’t have power points next to the bed, which is normally to be expected these days. Not too far from Cairns cbd, which is convenient

This is a low-budget hotel, so the rooms are simple but well-aired and bright. The staff are fantastic! So kind and welcoming. And the hotel is well-positioned - 10 minute walk to everything.
