No working tv, noisy air con and no way to turn it off. Cockroaches galore. Shower was great and it was spacious. Also lots of kitchen facilities. Needs a bug clean up and update in pretty much everything. Don’t like not having human contact on arrival.

I was a late check in so didn’t really deal with any staff. Although I was emailed the details of how to collect my key out of hours. Room was ok, but didn’t have power points next to the bed, which is normally to be expected these days. Not too far from Cairns cbd, which is convenient
