This is the worst hotel I’ve ever lived in my whole life. This is the first review I’ve ever wrote but I have to warn everyone who wants to live here. First, which was the worst thing of all, there was a woman who opened my door and came in in the middle of night. I was frightened and couldn’t sleep the whole night as I was a girl living alone. She then said she is confused and left, but how the hell did she open the door? The door was supposed to be locked. They gave me a room with a broken lock as a girl living alone. Second, the noise was unbearable. You can clearly hear everything outside and near you. The engines and people partying downstairs till 4am, you can even hear people next to you opening their doors. I heard a loud banging noise at 2am, later I even heard things dropping on the floor in the bathroom. I went to check, but there was nothing. I don’t know what the hell was that or was it someone next door or upstairs. Moreover, you can see in the photo, the window has some kind of scaffolding outside, and there are many birds standing on it and screaming all night long. Third, the bed had ants on it. My whole body was itching throughout the night. The blanket was extremely thin as if I had nothing on and as a result I caught a fever that night. Lastly, the temperature of the shower was impossible to adjust. It’s either boiling hot or freezing you to death. I wanted to leave this place and cancel the rest of my booking but they didn’t give any response when I reported the issue to trip.com. I couldn’t get any sleep throughout my trip and it was the worst experience ever. Please do not live in this hotel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Location is good. It is a 10mins walk to the Lagoon. There is Woolsworth right infront of it. 10 mins walk to Cairns Central Shopping Centre where you can find K Mart & Target. The marina is also 10mins walk.

Very good location for us and the accommodation was good. A bit noisy outside under the fig tree but overall we enjoyed our stay. The staff were very obliging.

Very gd location. Convenient walk to food and pier. Love the cosy breakfast on the verandah! A hotel of character! The only downside would be that some facilities inside the room are a bit old. Shower in our room is dripping. Noise at night could be loud!

Good city center location, recently redecorated hotel retaining some of its heritage charm on the 1st floor
