Disliked: Amenities
No staff available 24 hours. No change of bedding or towels like hotels. Very old building and there were open spaces on the wooden floor. For a week stay we then have to buy soap. No other stuff available like shower lotions shampoo, cream . They asked to use the laundry with payment. Probably this place is for monthly stays not for holidays for tourists.

部屋によって差があると思いますが、滞在したワンベッドルームのお部屋の感想です。 カトラリー関係は全て人数分揃っていました。 油、しお、胡椒の基本的な調味料ありました。 洗濯洗剤もありました。物干しもありますので洗濯毎日していました。 リビングのエアコンの効きはイマイチですが、ベッドルームのエアコンは良く効きました。 シャワー水量十分です。 3人で1部屋にするとエクストラベッドをリビングに配置してくれていました。 プール小さいですが、子供が遊ぶには十分です。 BBQエリア使いました、設備十分です。冷蔵庫もあります。 ホテルにすいんでいる長毛の猫(ラグドール?)がいます。すごく人慣れしてて可愛く毎日撫ででいました。 ホテルのスタッフの方も非常にフレンドリーで気持ちよく対応してくれます。 全体の評価より私たちはかなりいい印象です。 また滞在したいです。 オーストラリアのホテル全般に言えますが、部屋の電気は全体的に暗いですがこれはどこも同じかと。 キッチンに換気扇がないのでほぼ窓開けて調理していました。

The property is a nice place to stay for those who don't want to spend a fortune on accommodation. You are looking at a three block walk to the heart of the Esplanade. The appartment was good, and allows you to cook (as food on Esplanade is very pricey). I would like to see a little portable stove in the kitchen to allow you to bake things. The only frustrating thing about my stay was the television. It would suddenly lose picture after 2 or 3 hours! The pool is nice and deep, and the garden offers shade and privacy.

Awesome location, generous size room. Also, didn’t really appreciate the strict rules about taking your own rubbish downstairs at the end of the stay. It’s fine that there was no cleaning during stay but couldn’t the person cleaning the room at the end of the stay put the rubbish out? Overall I though the room was good value for money - except the bathroom was not just mouldy (the tile and shower floor and walls) but there was a strange “vacuum” created when in shower stall itself which resulted in the shower curtain being sucked toward you and against your body. I tried leaving the bathroom door open, closed, fan on, fan off - nothing worked. This could have been resolved with a proper, heavier, shower curtain and not just a flimsy nylon liner. Again, good value for money, just be aware of tiny mouldy bathroom.

Thank you for making my first visit to Cairns safe and comfortable. Sam and Irene were very gracious hosts, assisting with early check-in and early check-out, directions and recommendations. Quaint, old school charm. The location is ideal and walking distance to everything, from the esplanade and CBD, to the marina and Central Station. Tour pick ups were conveniently located at the hotel or the Novotel 2 blocks away. I never felt unsafe walking to/from rhe hotel, no matter the hour. The room was spacious and comfortable, albeit, no lift, so you'll have to carry your bags. The kitchen was well appointed and the washer and dryer were a blessing.The pool is tranquil for an evenings swim after a long day, although the flying foxes were quite the surprise at dusk. If I do return to Cairns, I will likely book again.

It was a great place as far as position. Some maintenance is needed. Out sliding door handle was broken and I meant to tell them that the shower was a little slippery to get into. A little concern as I had an elderly friend stay with me and we both thought that.
