Good value for money.
Pros:

Location and price.
Gagan was so kind, friendly, and very approachable. Him and his wife were the only two we saw working in the 2 weeks we stayed there.
Very friendly visitors staying there while having health needs attended to, at Cairns Hospital.

Cons:

A lot of things need minor repairs. Lack of attendance at the office?
Not everything advertised was provided. Limited kitchen supplies.
More information required required towel and sheet changing.

Great wifi and convenient location near airport.
Pros:

I have stayed at this venue before and the location is perfect for me.

I also enjoyed the late check-out without any drama.

I also enjoyed the autonomy of having a room with kitchen facilities.

I enjoyed the WIFI on the premises without much interruption.

Cons:

I want to say there were many things that needed attention to this time for my stay:

I stayed in Room 9 and noted the following problems:

1. the fridge is broken - food items such as milk went off in our short stay (less than a week) - the freezer worked fine.
2. a glass in the kitchen had a sharp edge and was "unsafe" to drink from
3. a mug split once hot water was added to make coffee
4. there was debris under the cushions on the couch
5. the rear door has a light which was not working - light bulb needed replacing or light needed repair
6. the air conditioner at 18 degrees (lowest setting) felt like on fan mode (needs maintenance).
7. the ceiling fans had one speed which was fast or stop out of 1, 2, 3 or off
8. the light in the bedroom with single beds was a faulty and only worked occasionally
9. bathroom vanity door was broken and stiff.
10. the floors were slippery with substance (noticeable when walking around without shoes)
11. the remote control for the TV was not working - had to use my own AAA batteries from a device I had brought since front office did not have replacement batteries
12. the pool was closed and had green pigmentation areas spotting the whole pool with signs of no maintenance

I raise these concerns so that it can be addressed so that I can return in the future to stay without bias.

This is a dingy budget hotel not cheap and cheerful
Pros:

The staff member delt with was very helpful. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable.

Cons:

The pool was green and out of service. The room was very basic and dated. The hot water took forever to come through. There were no blankets only a sheet provided. There was no milk or tea bags only coffee and sugar sachets. The air conditioner was noise and didn't really cool the room down. The road noise was quite loud.

À éviter : manque d’hygiène, bruit et aucun soutien
Pros:

Pas grand chose, l’arrêt de bus proche de l’établissement

Cons:

Nous avons séjourné à quatre dans cet appartement la semaine dernière, et malheureusement l’expérience a été très décevante du début à la fin.

À notre arrivée, l’appartement était dans un état de saleté inacceptable. J’ai dû aller chercher de quoi nettoyer et passer près de deux heures à faire le ménage moi-même pour que nous puissions nous sentir un minimum à l’aise. Malgré cela, le logement restait globalement très sale.

Dès la première nuit, la situation s’est encore aggravée : le vélo de mon ami a été volé. Nous avons demandé l’accès aux caméras de surveillance afin de pouvoir déposer plainte avec des éléments concrets, mais cela ne nous a jamais été fourni. Sans images ni aide de l’établissement, il nous a été impossible de faire une déposition correcte.

Par ailleurs, l’appartement est extrêmement bruyant et très mal isolé. Les fenêtres sont défectueuses : certaines ne se ferment pas correctement, d’autres ne s’ouvrent pas, ce qui rend le séjour encore plus inconfortable.

En résumé, rien n’était à la hauteur : propreté, sécurité, confort… tout est à revoir. Nous ne recommandons absolument pas cet établissement.

Very old and run down!
Pros:

Location, clean sheets.

Cons:

Very run down. Pool closed, taps dripping, cupboard doors missing, old and dated. Kept awake all night with children. I think hotel being used by housing clients who are living there. Couches very dirty. Owner started blowing and vaccuming at 7am Sunday morning. Not a nice experience.

Wouldn’t recommend.
Pros:

Nothing! Clean towels and sheets on beds.

Cons:

The property was poorly furnished, and upon arrival , the smell in the flat was unbearable. We were subsequently moved to a different apartment with the same, poor furnishings but at least the smell had improved.
Noisy location next to dual carriageway. Unsatisfactory location.
