It's clean and has the necessities. Nothing fancy, but we don't need fancy. The manager was polite and helpful. We came after hours and had no problem getting our key from the lock box. A nice simple place to stay.

The Cairns City Motel is a good place to stay, it is clean, centrally located and not expensive.
It is close to the Aquarium, Markets and Waterfront Precinct.
The only downside is that the reception area is only staffed for limited hours and only has 6 off-street parking spaces.
I will definitely stay there again.
