Our room was very dirty upon arrival. Our bedsheets had multiple stains and dirt on them…. When we went to talk to the front desk they said they had no cleaning staff available until the next day and no vacant rooms so they just gave us new sheets to put on the bed.

Definitely the biggest bang for your buck, not much more than a bed in a hostel, definitely one and a half or two times the price, not too bad. It’s definitely nothing special so don’t get your expectations up, but it’s nice to have your own space and air conditioning.

My flight was arriving late, I informed this to reception. I was messaged a code to enter the property. The code was not correct to access the key to my room. It was a terrible experience.

Location 10/10 Service 0/10 I had to work full time while staying at the Hides hotel, and unfortunately the wifi wasn’t working. (Things happens) staff kept telling us someone was looking at it, that’s untrue. We stayed 3 nights and nothing happened. I asked multiple times to cancel our stay as this was affecting my work and I needed wifi and they said « not our problem, it’s free anyway » honestly wished I never came to this place. Made me hate cairns altogether because of the horrible service. I even offered if I could get a credit for the cost that I had to pay in for SIM card. They said multiple times they would talk to their manager, either they did and management doesn’t care, or they didn’t because they knew wifi wouldn’t be fixed anyway. Garbage

Photos looked like a really nice place but it's getting pretty old and could use some TLC. Over priced compared to other accom in the area. Also charge for luggage storage which I haven't seen in a long while.
