This seemed to be a hotel for young people staying up all night. The walls are thin adam’s people were coming and going at all hours. The shower did not have enough pressure to work properly either. Other than that it was everything we expected for the price we paid.

The lift was scary. None of the keys worked very well. Had to wiggle and giggle keys to open doors. The paid parking was very tight. I was in room 106 on 1st floor. Could hear the lift all night plus everyone going up and down stairs. The view. Well there was none except a tin roof. The staff were nice and breakfast was good for the price.

After completing a packaged tour, I needed a reasonably priced and convenient accommodation in Carins before an early bus, so chose Hides as it was close to Cairns Railway Station. My checkin experience was soured slightly as the reception would not accept "tap and go" cards for the deposit, unlike all other hotels. Once I got into the room, I was quite impressed with the facilities, especially with the bed side lamps with in-built USB charging, The room itself was spacious and comfortable, more than acceptable for an overnight stay. The location is convenient to shopping and cafes in the city. Overall would stay again.
