Parking within the complex is very safe and secure. Staff are always friendly and helpfull. Rooms are a decent size with a sink which is a bonus. Its a busy little area so some noise is to be expected when you book in but its never intruding on sleep time that I have experienced. Have stayed here many times a year since 2013 and always go back.

Donna

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Stayed in a single room, was quite impressed with the layout and how much room there actually was. Very old though although the shower looked new, and had all i needed for a late check in early checkout to catch a flight and for the price. Had a fridge, the bed was comfy enough and there was good lighting. Good location with an onsite indian restaurant or other food options a close walk away. Walls are not sound proof though, i could hear the occupant next door shower, eat dinner and movement which did keep me awake for a while. Would definitely stay there again though. Really like the fact there is car parking and gates get locked at night, good security which is needed in cairns.

I would stay there again, the accommodation was beautiful and great for a couple to stay for the weekend or a few days ☺️ but would highly recommend some thick quilts as well the thin blanket because my hubby and I were so cold after having the aircon on and didn’t want to turn it off because it would’ve been hot also. We travelled from Adelaide SA where it was cold so we were trying to enjoy the warm weather also. But I would recommend anyone to stay at the Aspect it’s cheap, it’s clean, it’s in a good location, and it’s friendly. Thank you for having us stay ☺️
