Mad Monkey Waterfront
93A Esplanade, 4870 Cairns, Australia – Excellent location - show map
The dorm and en-suite bathroom was very spacious, comfy and clean. Really nice staff which gave me great recommendations about daily activities and located directly on the esplanade next to the lagoon, many restaurants and shops. It’s a small hostel where I experienced a good vibe meeting other travellers in the common areas while cooking or joining the events in the evening.
