Dont come here if you are a smoker. Unlike other Australian motels we stayed at, I was directed out to the street, no designated smoking area. Other than that the facilities were just ok.

Run away!!! First off, this is not a hotel but a motel. Noisy, dirty, and lacking after hour support. When we arrived an incapacitated man laid blocking the entrance. No elevator, no 24 hr front office staff, the rooms are old and worn out and lack necessary amenities. There is no shower curtain or full glass door so water spews out during shower making the already disgusting room more disgusting. No mirror outside of the bathroom so one has to wait until every is done showering to use it as it fogs up. I don’t recall a bathroom door either. The housekeeping service is terrible and filthy. They keep refilling the soap/shampoo/conditioner when not needed like a robot but completely ignore cleaning the room. The room remained dirty every day (Cairns is beach/forest day trip location). The rooms are also very tight in space. When a/c was switched to heat one day, the whole floor became wet from condensation. All night long people (homeless) on the street keep yelling and screaming so one can’t sleep. There are streets on both sides of the motel is what I was told when I complained to front desk. I was told that there isn’t much they can do about it. They seemed to be well aware of all the issues I was mentioning. It was the worst part of our vacation.
