Sian

Disliked: Cleanliness
Initially I was pleasantly surprised by the property given the price we were paying. When we got to the room however, I could understand the price. The room smelt musty and damp. I put that down to all the rain that FNQ had been having. What I couldn't get past though were the cockroaches. The first one I came across when I opened the cutlery drawer and a little one was looking up at me. When my daughter opened it again later, one twice the size had taken it's place. Several emerged from under the sofa while we sat watching TV. When I went to turn the light on in the bedroom there was one sitting on the light switch. When three scuttled out from under the telephone on the bedside table I knew I wasn't going to get much sleep. Response I received from the receptionist when I checked out in the morning was 'oh sorry'. Safe to say I wouldn't recommend.

Noisy environment, screaming kids at night, not babies older children who should have been inside and quiet, ridiculously loud music at Flamingo Bar. Breakfast not value for money. Make the effort and go elsewhere. Red wine served at Cairns room temperature. Parking a nightmare.

We only stayed for one night. Booked for 2 adults and 3 kids but when we arrived there were only 2 single beds and a queen. Bugs on the floor as there was a gap under the door. Would’ve loved to have used the pool, playgrounds spa as they looked so fun but we had to leave. Night ended up being fine as we could squish in the queen but luckily our kids weren’t big! Fine to stop over here.
