Amazing stay! The hostel was beautiful, very clean, and extremely well equipped. Peter was incredibly friendly and helpful and really made the whole experience even better. The kitchen and bathrooms were spotless and very well maintained. The room itself was fantastic and honestly felt more like a hotel room than a typical hostel room. I would absolutely stay here again, the best place to stay in Cairns!

It was nice and quiet. Close to grocery stores and nightlife, but not right in the center of the busy part of town. There were lots of small areas to enjoy and relax around the hostel which meant lots of peace and quiet as opposed to one loud central area. Tim, the manager was great!

1) Wonderful staff, friendly and very helpful. 2) Attention to the environment (recycling bins with clear instructions, which is not always the case elsewhere, Green Stay option. You can tell they truly care). 3) Very relaxed atmosphere. Hostel-like feeling with common areas to get together if travellers want to (games, books, tables for evening chats), with all the conveniences of a hotel. 4) The pool area! 5) The location close to Muddy's Playground, which my children loved. I was a bit nervous when I committed to a 2-week stay, because you never know if you'll like a place you've never been, but honestly this hotel has exceeded our expectations and we felt like home. Room 117 was very convenient: ground floor, easy access to reception and laundry on the other side of the little courtyard, also next to the common tables and not too close to the pool. Of all the hotels we've been over our 2-month travels around Australia, this is the only one we would truly recommend staying at. We will definitely stay here again if we visit Cairns another time.

The hotel was in a nice location not too far from the center, the rooms were nice, the pool was really nice, but the staff was amazing. They gave us a free upgrade and free early check in because of how hot it was when we arrived. A staff member gave out ice creams on a particularly hot day to people at the pool. And there was a bbq grill for use. I would stay again next time I’m in cairns.

We really enjoyed our stay at this apartment. Arrival was very well organized with good instruction how to get the keys from a lockbox. The digits on the lock were a bit difficult to read in the dark, but we managed. The apartment is very spacious and extremely well located. Everything of interest is within good walking distance: the Esplanada, the Acquarium, restaurants, shopping center. The apartment is well equipped. There is a swimming pool, which is fairly small (suited for one person at a time), but as it is not used a lot, this is not a problem. The hosts were quick with communication.

The two swimming pools were amazing; the gardens were stunning...one of the best outdoor environments we've stayed in. Comfortable beds, and the room was really clean. The price was very cheap. Staff were polite and helpful.

Location is great. 5 minute walk to Cock and Bull pub for hearty traditional meals. One of Main street to CBD Outdoor area surrounding gardens is a huge plus to the swimming pool that caters to all age groups. Water is nice and smooth and is a delight to swim in. We had a 2bedroom with all the timings. Aircon nd fans work well and is a must. Beds are super duper comfy. The receptionist was lovely, softly spoken and always on hand to meet our needs.
