Spacious & convenient, but getting old and needs some maintenance
Pros:

Excellent location right in the centre of town. Everything you need for a short or long stay in Cairns. Hosted our family Christmas in the lounge room.

Cons:

There was an incident where smoke filled the building and we had to evacuate and it was handled poorly by the onsite managers. The smoke detector in our room was covered by a plastic bag. Safety procedures need an overhaul with training for the onsite managers.

A great apartment in walking distance to everything.
Pros:

We have been to Cairns numerous times but this was our first time staying at Inn Cairns and we will be back, We arrived out of hours but check in was seamless. Our apartment was equipped with everything we needed, modern, comfortable and spacious. Cannot beat the location, walking distance to everything. Staff friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The shower itself was amazing but nowhere but the floor to put toiletries. The dryer didn't work but the clothes horse supplied was sufficient.
