Could have had a sink in the washroom with good lighting.

It was close to the airport and a central location for pick up and drop off for tours.

Nothing, not to like.

Close proximity to town, great facilities, clean and tidy, a home away from home. Julie was great she went over and above the expectations, was very friendly, and will be a forever friend.

Nothing

Julie was a very welcoming host. She made sure I had everything I needed on arrival and offered to pick me up from the airport if needed. The place was clean, quiet and very comfortable. Walkable to the main attractions in Cairns.

Open plan living-room, including the kitchen which was well fitted and supplied more than we expected, the bed was large and comfortable, the dining area was quite sufficient. The bathroom was quite modern, although a mozzie-screen would have been an advantage. Owner was helpful, public transport was within easy walking distance, and often my wife and I chose to walk to the esplanade and city centre.

Pleasant location, pleasant outlook. no stress.

It’s a bit further from the city centre but I didn’t mind the walk :)

Julie has a lovely home with different rooms so you’re not alone in the house which is nice to meet people. The house has everything you need, felt super comfortable being there for a few days and always nice to have a chat with Julie!

It needs a bit of attention to the garden and wooden stairs.

No breakfast offered, the larger room is lovely.

Comfy and quiet, close to town

About 10 min walk to the main road. Not a huge deal though.

Absolute value for money, Clean, quiet and comfortable. It has the privacy and connivence of a hotel on a hostel budget. Host also does airport pickup/dropoff for a small fee.

The fact that I had to walk upstairs every time to use the bathroom and toilet, even in the middle of the night. :)

The room was very well set with comfortable bed, it felt very homey. Though bathroom and toilet facilities were shared, I commend on the cleanliness - Spotless and odorless!

The airlines were adding/cancelling flights, probably overestimating travellers' concerns over cyclones Jasper and Kirrily.

It was great to experience a traditional Queenslander only 15 mins walk from Cairns Central. I had no car but got bus day tickets for $2.40 as a senior and had day trips to Kuranda, the northern beaches and Green Island.

The walls are thin and we could hear the conversations from the room next door, being a light sleeper probably didn’t help as well.

The location was great, everything we had to go to were very accessible with just few mins drive. You have everything that you would expect or need in a homestay. Julie was very accommodating. She invited us for Christmas lunch which was quite nice.

Julie and Cairns. It was like being at home, even with the cats.

The old frying pans.

I had my own breakfast, but Julie adder yogourt and mango fruit to Please me. The location isn’t far from Cairns Central where Tour busses pick tourists up. If one like walking one can go to the aquarium, the seafront or the botanical Gardens.

Quiet and spacious room. The host Julie was very helpful and made sure you felt comfortable.

Minor complaints but in context of the rates, insignificant to the overall enjoyment of the stay. Provided other guests abide by the respectful, peaceful requests; it's a fabulous relaxed place to stay. Walking into town was brilliant for me to get my daily walk :)

Everything provided for a comfortable stay. Breezy, quiet location only 15 minutes walk to main shopping mall and a further 15 minutes walk to The Promenade.

The studio is essentially a room in the lower level of a Queenslander; as such, it is separated from other rooms just by doors that are locked and have a second security screen? I did not feel unsafe at all, but noise travelled A LOT. Had to tell both of my adjoining rooms to quiet down; they may have not realized as I, being alone and not using the TV, made little to no noise. It is a 30 min walk from the centre, personally I do not mind that but people unfamiliar with Cairns should be aware.

Spacious studio with a large bathroom, decent bed & kitchen, and the host is very attentive.

Property was clean easily accessible

It wasn't the room that was in the photos I had from Booking.com or the description e.g. no open plan bathtub, I had a shower only. But it worked out ok for me. It wasn't as sound proof as it could be, maybe add some padding to the door leading to the other room next door to help reduce disturbing other guests.

I liked that it had what I needed.

Stayed in August 2023

The location doesn't count as Cairns central. So if you book some tours, they don't necessarily pick you up from the accommodation. But the walk to the Central Station as pick up point is just 20 minutes.

It was a nice and cozy place with an own entrance. I enjoyed my stay and Julie was really friendly. I would stay again!
