There aen't enought superlatives for Inn Cairns ... At first glance, it looks pretty unprepossessing, but once you step inside the Reception area, it's almost like coming home......
The apartments are clean, spacious and contain everything you need ... Washing machine & separate drier, large bathroom, comfortable beds (with an additional sofa bed, if required), a kitchen (not that we used it), cutlery, crockery, glasses, microwave, hob .... The decor maybe not quite up to the standard of a designer hotel, but that's hardly surprising at the price! Each apartment has it's own small terrace, there are 2 roof terraces, ideal for breakfast or a late glass of wine, in addition to the swimming pool and sun terrace. Also incredibly efficient air conditioning.
Selwyn and Eric (didn't meet Jonathan), the Managers immediately become 'old friends' as soon as you meet them. They're so helpful, they've sorted your problems out, even before you knew you had one! They offer advice as to where to shop (cheaply!), where to by beer & wine, where to eat, where to go and visit.... even whether you need to apply super-strong mozzie spray before you visit ...... If you need a taxi, one seems to appear out of nowhere ..... Nothing is too much trouble for them, but is done in such a friendly, unassuming way, that's is as if they're mates, helping you out!
It doesn't have 5 stars, or hot & cold running room service, but is quite the nicest place that we could have chosen to stay in Cairns.
