We had a great 5 nights here, the superior rooms on the 2nd floor were excellent, quiet with plenty of space and a large balcony overlooking the pool. The staff were brilliant always ready to help with a smile. We're traveling by motorcycle so the secure underground parking was a particular boon. I'd definately stay again.
We did not like the dark location of the room within the hotel. Felt as being in a cellar underground.
Bad lighting (only one ceiling light)
Friendly front desk and cleaning staf.
Parking was good and secure.

Stayed in the superior, balcony (mountain view room). Hotel is good for location, convenient to shops and mall — the stay was ok. Bed is average, cleaning could have been better in bathroom, toilet seat in our room needs some maintenance. However decent space, great tv, enjoyed balcony chairs and didn’t mind the view of mountains.

The hotel was clean and comfortable but showed a few signs of cost savings.
The towel rail in the bathroom was not properly fixed to the wall and the toilet paper was very thin and cheap.
Also, like all hotels in Queensland, I think, the pool was too cool to use at this time of year.
However, in spite of these criticisms, I would be happy to stay there again.
Clean and comfortable. Located centrally in cairns, close to airport, hospital and shopping and restaurants of CBD. Good facilities, off street free parking.

Staff very courtious. Room was clean and comfortable. Motel is close to amenities, shops and hospital.
The hotel is nice, massive bed, comfy sofa and very friendly staff. Communication was good prior to visit.
We went for an apartment style room for the cooking facilities, but there were no pots and pans or cooking utensils, meaning we couldn’t really use these facilities. Not sure if this is normal, but worth confirming with the hotel if you, like us, went for this bigger room for these amenities.
Clean property with large room. Would recommend not booking the mountain view room as it looks over a busy road. About a 20 min walk to the Esplande were all of the restaurants were located.
Hotel was in a great location for what we needed for our stay in Cairns. Just wished the rooms had balconies and we could let fresh air into the room. Will stay again but next time in a better room. Staff were excellent
