    We went in March and the first room we were given was very moudly and the smell was overpowering. We called up and requested for a new room and the second one was a little better because it was just sprayed. However it still had a moudly smell the next day. This is due to their carpets in the area rather.

    The location was fantastic given how central the accommodation was. We also liked that our room was spacious. The staff were accommodating and changed our room after check-in after hours due to the moudly smell.

    rooms were a good size and clean with everything we needed in the room. couch was not very comfortable to sit and watch a movie but short rests was ok, the bed wasn't very comfortable, pillows were great though. Hotel is a bit dated and in need of some TLC and upgrading.

    location was great so close to everything. staff were amazing, accomodating, friendly, helpful.

    Nothing not to like. The bonus of the upgrade was great. We have stayed at the property on a few other occasions and some of the rooms or a little dated.

    We were upgraded to a 'luxury room' which was excellent. Room was very well appointed, spacious and very comfortable. The location of the property is great, next to the night markets and one street back from the esplanade in Cairns. Easy walking distance to everything. Secure under cover car parking.

    Roadside view BUT that said we were booked poolside but arrived early and made the choice to change it due to our room not being ready. That was good of the staff to allow us to check in early.

    Better instruction on where the key was left for after hours arrival. The email instructions I received was not the correct instructions when speaking to the after hour staff. Very disappointed to get to third floor when and the key was in the locked PO Box downstairs and have to go back and forth. The box was left opened and we did not need any combination to open. The lift was also very slow and needs maintenance big time as it takes ages to go up and coming down. My first impression was that the lift is stuck and that put me in a panic mode.

    That the location was great.

    We couldn’t have a hot shower because the smoke alarms are so sensitive, and it sounded as though the bill for the fire department call out would be for the guests account!

    Central location . Comfortable bed and a large spacious unit!

    Minor problems with shower adjustment and pressure and toilet cistern noisy if button not fully pressed down. Units could do with a refresh but overall very satisfied with our stay

    Location was fantastic, walking distance for Esplanade, markets, restaurants and galleries. Just parked the car on arrival and it stayed there til we left. Helpful & welcoming reception on arrival and terrific secure parking. Got a great deal too considering in school holiday period

    The lift is really slow but the staff mentioned that they have a plan to change the lift soon.

    The apartment is self contained with a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, laundry machine and dryer. The Cairns night market on Abbott Street is next to the apartment.

    Whilst the property was very safe and too needed key access out of area, it felt odd not having a reception manned 24hrs. The lifts were very slow but this wasn’t an issue.

    The location was excellent. Minutes walk to the esplanade lagoon and nice restaurants/ cafes. Night markets were pretty much next door. Aquarium only a few mins walk, as was the reef fleet terminal. Perfect location. The beds were the most comfy I’ve ever slept in (including my own!) Pool was nice too.
