Short stay in Cairns
Pros:

Great location and really nice reception staff. Good value.

Cons:

The hotel walls are a bit thin which means you will hear noisy neighbours (but this only happened on one night of my stay).

Great value and excellent location. Room was ready earlier than check in time and staff were super friendly

I would stay here again.
Pros:

it was clean and comfortable. I was out most of the time. It was an easy walk to Muddies and the piers/esplanade.

Cons:

the door on 208 had some marks on it. a quick coat of paint would spruce it up, otherwise good.
