A good value budget motel. It was clean, the beds comfortable and the staff friendly. WiFi was a bit sketchy and regularly dropped off from time to time - that’s the only negative. A bus stop about 200 metres away with regular services into downtown Cairns. We’d definitely stay again.

We appreciated the comparable price. Flew in from the Torres Strait for a family event in Cairns. With kitchenette and on Mulgrave Road and relatively close, it was a nice stay.
