Great location, but rooms a bit tired
Pros:

The location is really convenient for access to the cafes and restaurants on main street

Cons:

The rooms are dated, studio is very small but units with separate bedroom are much more spacious. Pool and pool area is cramped and not sunny. Pool is poorly designed and ladder unsafe. Showers are mostly over bath and had to access for older folk. Baths not usable even as taps not working and no plugs to hold water. Mattresses are rather tired and lumpy.
We had an issue as room wasn't available on arrival day due to a plumbing incident and had to downgrade one day, management said they would compensate some way, but despite a few reminders never bothered to do anything. Just leaves a bad vibe.

Fabulous location to enjoy the treats of beautiful Port Douglas
Pros:

Location was brilliant bang in the middle of town so easy walking access to beach, shops, restaurants, etc.
Our room was very compact n quite noisy, we could hear guests above us using their bathroom. No exhaust fan in our bathroom. Pool although small was fine, ladder needs attention. Staff were very friendly n helpful.

Cons:

Room was too small for us but perhaps that was our own fault for not a thorough investigation
