Completely enjoyed our stay. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and the breakfast was perfect for grabbing a quick bite before leaving on day trips/tours. The location is perfect, 5 minute walk to Port of Airlie and 10 minute walk into town.

The private room we stayed in was clean and quiet. Check in was easy and front desk staff were always friendly. On our day of check out they let us store luggage for the day as we didn’t leave town until the evening which was a great help! The bathrooms ran out of paper products a few times and the bathrooms and kitchen were not the cleanest in comparison to other hostels along the east coast, but it was nothing too notable and overall we had a positive experience! The location is incredible and...

It was located near the botanical garden and a 40 minutes walk to the marina. I find that the location was great because usually there are some shuttles pick up for excursions like Kuranda Scenic Railway. Staff was very friendly an de helpful. The taxi from the airport costed us 20$ (at night) and 16$ to get there back.

We enjoyed our stay. The room was spacious and clean and it was great to have use of a kitchenette. Property is located centrally in Cairns and is an easy walk to most sights.
