Check in was good - given a warm choc chip cookie - not had that before - strange - was told we had an upgrade - however the room was small - large tv but not here to watch tv - bathroom was very small and no extra or fan so very humid and steamy when showering - So dread to know what the original booked room would have been like ! Air con not working all night although cool when we arrived at 5 pm - very uncomfortable night hot and humid didn’t sleep well at all bed not too great either to be honest - felt like in a boat each time partner turned over due to being uncomfortable with the heat - strange thing is air con literally started to work at 10.40 am just before we checked out at 11am - is this normal practice to save money ??? Does this happen in every room ? Seems strange - staff very friendly and polite - nice breakfast - but again not all about the food - more about a comfortable nights sleep - especially when you have to catch a flight the next day! - was offered a small refund on the cost $50 which was accepted - but personally will not book this hotel again - stayed in another hotel in Cairns two weeks ago which was cheaper - the room was huge - bathroom big with extractor - and had full control over the air con which is a major factor to me .

Most poorly designed hotel bathroom I’ve seen. And I have traveled all over the world. Smaller than in a standard cabin on a cruise ship. Drain in the floor that rattled every time you walked into the room or sat on the toilet. So annoying!! And no face cloths.
