Nice Little Motel in The Middle of Cairns
It was an emergency booking owing to my flight from Papua New Guinea being delayed by many hours, thus had to make a last-minute booking for accommodation, while still in PNG and opted for Cairns City Sheridan Motel. When I arrived at the motel after 11:00pm, the key to the room had been left in a night safe but unfortunately, it was the wrong key, and I couldn't enter the room. So, I called the manager who was not onsite at the hotel but some distance away... No problem - she immediately set off back to the hotel to give me the correct key for the booked room. She was very apologetic and most helpful so, the frustration I was feeling about the blunder was quickly alleviated by her prompt and professional action, which ultimately made my brief stay that Friday evening a very pleasant one. The room had everything - more than I expected in terms of facilities. It was also a very clean & tidy, spacious room which also had a cute little balcony, complete with outdoor table and chairs.

Worst hotel we have ever stayed in
This was the worst hotel we have ever stayed in. It was very poorly maintained and looked quite tired and worn, the chain lock was missing from the door, shower had mould, bathroom sink tap was stiff to use, bed sheets were crumpled like they had been left in a basket or maybe not been washed since the last guest, the pillows did not smell fresh at all, the floor was slimy. We kept shoes on at all times, and wore footwear to shower. We had booked for 2 nights, due to exhaustion we stayed the first night but left first thing the next morning. When checking out, the lady at reception seemed to think we had picked up the wrong room key from the safe box at check in but didn’t elaborate or seem interested and asked no questions as to why we would leave our booking early. Would never recommend this hotel to anyone. We wanted a refund as we were misled by this site in regards to information and photos about this hotel but the hotels.com app doesn’t give refunds for cancellations after check-in.

I was unable to stay at the property due to the conditions of the room. I emailed them afterwards with photos of the dirt, mold and cockroaches and have requested a refund as I had to rebook another place that evening. I have not received a response to repeated emails.

The room was clean and comfortable and the hotel only a short walk from Cairns CBD, so very convenient. The TV in my room was not working. I reported this but no action was taken to remedy. It was noisy at night with doors slamming and rowdy young guys in the early hours of the morning.

Very unhygienic.
We checked in late, around 7pm. No park available, had to park on the street. The stairwell up to room was dirty. The tiled floor was greasy, bed sheets looked as though someone had already slept in bed. The tap in the bathroom basin was broken, the sliding door lock was broken. The towels were threadbare and the curtains were dirty. All this for $150 a night. Very disappointed after a long day of travel.

The property was cheap for a last minute overnight stay while travelling with our kids. Late check in was fairly quick and the beds were comfortable. The condition of the room was very poor. Air-conditioning was extremely noisy, sqeaked loudly all night and no way to turn it off or adjust the cold temperature it was set on.There was no remote for the TV and only two blankets in a room to sleep 5...all other beds only had a thin sheet on, so we were cold.
