Great room for stop over or a few days. Secure parking is a bonus. Rooms are clean and bathroom is dated but useable. Bed was comfortable. No noise outside after pool closed on time. Late check in instructions very clear and precise and had no trouble self checking in. Have stayed here many times.

There have been over the top toxic reviews of this place a while ago when now it’s a very good affordable motel room. Nothing wrong with it. Pristine cleanliness, an excellent manager, cold air con, fab outside balcony, even buscuits with the coffee and a bath to soak in. And so cheaper than similar motels. I visit cairns often and this will be my new motel to stay in.

Everything worked but a bit run down. If your tall the shower might be a challenge. Had to call when we got to the site because the office is not manned.
