Just a brief stroll from The Esplanade and The Pier, this establishment offers a prime location for exploring Cairns. Guests can enjoy complimentary unlimited WiFi throughout their stay. The staff were super friendly and helpful in booking the Great Barrier Reef and Kuranda tour. I was in a shared room with 3 beds. The room was as described and clean. The bathrooms were also clean and there are multiple so it's not a big problem to share. Amazing outdoor Shower. Easy check-out if you leave early to take a flight.
