Friendly staff. Close to bus stop to go to the city or Palm Cove. Has pool for the kids and a bbq in the yard. Internet was a bit slow in our room. Mattress was also a bit old. But overall good value for the money.

It is located on a very busy road. Poor sound proof of the building and you feel like you sleep right in the middle of the road. The people next door made loud noises till 1am. The room is relatively clean, but not coming back again for sure.
