Great thing is parking spot for our van that a little bit high but here we can park in front of the hotel not under. Everything is good except the wifi not strong enough.. on off on off.. It’s not new hotel but everything clean and great prices. Great location to walk to the beach and eating places

I booked a 3-bedroom apartment, but didn't have high expectations since it was a motel. However, it was cleaner than I thought and not bad at all. It's a bit far from the city center, so I had to use Uber frequently. Still, the accommodation fee was cheap enough that even with the Uber costs, it was still a good deal. It takes about 10 minutes by Uber to get to the city center, and you can just do your grocery shopping at a supermarket there and take an Uber back.

Easy access, all digital entry sent to mobile in a timely manner. Room was clean and fairly new. Great bed. Included shower items such as body wash, shampoo and conditioner. Great price. Many restaurants short walk away.

Traveling solo, I found this place quiet and clean. The only minor drawback was the slightly dated facilities, but everything else was perfect. The price was also reasonable. I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm on a road trip in New Zealand.

Overall, I was satisfied with the value for money. The location wasn't bad either, which was great because I could get around Brisbane to the city center and main attractions without worrying about transportation costs. The room was cleaner than I expected, and most importantly, it was convenient to connect my phone to the TV to watch shows. Cable TV worked well too. All in all, it's not a super luxurious hotel, but for this price, it's a perfectly satisfying place to stay!

The hotel's location is in the city center. My flight arrived early, so I took an Uber from the airport for AU$30 (it can be as cheap as AU$20 during off-peak hours), arriving at the hotel around 12:00 PM. The front desk informed me that check-in wasn't possible until after 2:00 PM, which is standard policy. However, I was also told that luggage storage wasn't free and would cost AU$6 to use a locker. I've stayed at many hotels where luggage storage is complimentary for guests, so this charging policy felt quite unfriendly. Thankfully, I didn't have much luggage, so I just took it with me to grab some food before coming back to check in. After checking in, I noticed other issues: 1. The Wi-Fi signal was very weak, almost non-existent during the day (it was sometimes usable at night). When I asked the front desk, they said there was nothing they could do. I ended up using my China Mobile data (capped at 30 RMB/day, which was acceptable). There was a router-like device in the room, but the front desk said it was only for connecting the phone and not related to the internet. 2. The bathroom sink faucet was too low, so I had to use the showerhead to fill the electric kettle. 3. The toilet seat was installed at an awkward angle and wouldn't stay up on its own; you had to hold it, which was quite strange. 4. The door's soundproofing wasn't very good; I could hear people talking in the corridor late at night. On the positive side: The staff tried their best to provide good service, but the issues with the hardware were beyond their control. Although the hotel equipment was a bit old, the room was spacious with a private bathroom. The in-room facilities were quite comprehensive, with multiple USB charging ports (which are not common in Australian hotels). The room was also clean, tidy, and quiet. After 6:00 PM daily, a password was required to enter the main hotel door, which felt secure. Directly opposite the hotel, across the road, was a Woolworths supermarket (6:00 AM - 10:00 PM), and there were plenty of dining options nearby. Most departure points for Great Barrier Reef day trips at the Reef Fleet Terminal were a 10-minute walk away. The hotel's greatest asset is its location, followed by its relatively cheap price and spacious rooms with private bathrooms. Despite these various issues, personally, I might still choose to stay at Hides again next time I'm in Cairns.

I stayed three nights here, and have zero cause for complaint. Great location, service, and a television that didn't require manual bypassing or cable calisthenics to actually access the most basic features those of us who live in the 21st century have become accustomed to (installing Spotify and listening to the exact same song for 64 hours straight...via the Bluetooth capability, recently released from Hotel-Lock Television Incarceration).

The staff were incredibly friendly. Also, I felt very secure and at ease knowing that a card key was required to enter both the hotel entrance and the rooms, which is a great security feature. The $10 dinner at the attached pub, which was pizza when I went, had a crispy crust and was absolutely delicious – I was extremely satisfied.

The front desk staff were incredibly kind and friendly. The room accommodated four people, featuring one bunk bed and two single beds. I was assigned the top bunk; there was a storage shelf near the foot of the bed that I kept bumping into, which was painful. The curtains were basic and didn't block out light or noise effectively. Although there was a large storage unit, one person had taken it over, so I couldn't use it. The shower, toilet, and sink were all in the same room, meaning if someone else was using the space, no one else could use any of the facilities for a while. Someone sleeping in one of the single beds turned off the lights, so I had to pack my things in pitch darkness. I think the stay would be much more comfortable if you happened to share the room with considerate people.
