Pros:

The staff were friendly.
The apartment overlooked the pool, which was nice.

Cons:

The apartment needed some TLC.
The couches were dirty & the bathroom definitely needed some upgrades.
It was a very noisy area & further away from town than we expected. We had to Uber most times to get to the centre of town.

Pros:

The staff was very friendly and, generally, the apartment has everything you need. I slept very well.

Cons:

It didn't feel very clean. There was no one single issue that stood out, it was just a general feeling. The road can also be a bit loud depending on which room or apartment you are in. Overall, it was okay.

Well spent stay at Koala Court Holiday Apartments

The apartment was clean, well lit and had all the amenities needed for a short stay. The host, Noutekh was very accommodating and went overboard to help us with our luggage as well as an early morning check-out.

Nothing in particular.

お安く、自由気楽な宿かと。
Pros:

施設は古めで、新しいホテルなどとは比較になりませんが、洗濯機や乾燥機は使い放題、フロントの方々は親切で丁寧だと思いました。近くで食事や買い物ができます。特にCock&Bullというお店は良かった。

Cons:

7日間、御世話になりましたが、1晩、隣人がうるさい夜が有りました。施設の案内にはダメって書いてあるんですけどね。

Quiet and comfortable stay!
Pros:

It was quiet and didn’t feel intrusive - I was left to enjoy my stay in peace but I knew the manager was around if needed. Very peaceful, had everything I needed and was great for my short stay. Thanks!

快適
Pros:

シティから少し離れているが、歩ける距離で、十分な広さがあって快適。

Cons:

Booking.comには、洗濯設備の有無が明記してなかったですが、共同の設備がありました。これが明記してあれば良かった。また入室時は、よくあるようにキーボックスのよる物で、手紙入りで親切だったが、やはりそこにも洗濯設備について記載があったら、もっと良かった。、

All in all a great place to stay in Cairns. Would highly recommend
Pros:

Very comfortable with very well equipped kitchen. Comfy beds, lots of space to spread out.
Good location, mid town. About 25mins walk if you don’t have a car.
Very secure with keypad gate.

Cons:

Would be nice to have TV channels that were more than just news eg access to streaming channels or even to be able to log in to our own streaming accounts
