    Had a great stay at this hotel. The location is excellent, with very short walking distance to both the city center and the esplanade area. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, including several Indian restaurants, which made dining very convenient. A special mention for “Bombay Kitchen” — definitely one of the best Indian restaurants nearby and a must-try for anyone staying in the area. The hotel kitchen was also fully equipped, which was very useful for cooking meals whenever needed. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with a fantastic location and excellent value for money. Would definitely recommend it.

    Good location in central Cairns, and clean. But... My room was very basic, a bed and a small desk. Nowhere to hang clothes, no tea-making facility, not even a glass for a drink of water. There was nowhere comfortable to sit, the bed was on castors and slid away as you leaned against the wall. The kitchen has hobs and microwaves but no ovens - bad luck if you want oven chips! The swimming pool was locked during my stay. Breakfast is dull, a limited choice of individual cereal packets and croissants fresh from the fridge! It's the worst YHA hostel I've visited in Australia, disappointing.
