Unfortunately we live in the day and age when $100 is cheap for a motel room but this place should have been $60 max because not only were there ants in the room the fan was falling out the ceiling so far I turned it off for safety, the aircon old and not very cool. Chunks of the walls and skirting damaged or missing from rot or similar and it wasn’t very clean as I had to put socks or shoes on to not end up with dirt and whatever all over my feet. The TV was very difficult to use and I could not find a setting to turn the brightness down which was incredibly bright at night in the small tiled room. The bathroom wasn’t at all private with no window coverings and a second story windows looking directly down into it. I’ve stayed in nicer, cheaper more private feeling hostels before.

Room was clean and serviceable. It is value for money. Fridge was not replenished during my 4 day stay so coffee and milk ran out day 1. I probably only had to ask for more though. It was a budget stay and i would do it again.

Felt very unsafe here as a female solo traveler. Come to find out this motel is located in a rougher part of Carins. Was woken up several times by screaming from other tenants from (1-3am). The locks are janky and would definitely not protect you if someone really wanted to break in. The floors also felt pretty unclean. You get what you pay for but I still wouldn’t recommend. You can get a much nicer place in a better area for $30 more.

Saw the cheap price - could have been a special deal, or could have been 'you get what you pay for'. Unfortunately it was #2. None of the photos showed me what I was getting - maybe they have nicer rooms. Hotel is very old and tired. Hardly any parking. Beds were uncomfortable and well past it. A/C on max was struggling to keep room just barable. On the plus side, the room was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. It is priced correctly - just the photos are misleading.

For the price, this property comes highly recommended. We paid just a standard room, and it was one floor up (stairs only) and had obviously a bed, en suite, tv, air con, ceiling fan, bar fridge, microwave and tea/coffee. We don't smoke but if you are a smoker, you have to go right to the front of the property for the designated area. Beautiful pool and quite large. Easy walk to Cairns Central and CPAC. Parking limited but plenty free on the street. We would definitely return.
