The place was very dirty and the floors were not clean. The rooms on the lower level felt unsafe as the curtain was held up by sticky tape. This was not enough to block the public from seeing inside the room as there was no fence around.

No working A/C, no working WiFI, no working free to air TV…. Mould in shower, tap broken, 1 20ml shampoo and conditioner for 4 ppl to share. No hand soap or shower gel. 1 coffee mug but no tea or coffee. Fan sounded like it was going to crash down from the ceiling. Whole place was dirty and loud. No flyscreen and what looked like blood on the curtains. Photos online clearly from 10 plus years ago. It made me feel dirty.

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.
