2-Star Hotels in Queensland, Australia

I was expecting better experience since I’m staying in an ensuite room, but the bathroom didn’t provide any shower amenities, and the room was quite messy — possibly because of other tenants. When I entered the room in the afternoon, there was no air conditioning, so I had to walk to the front desk to report it. The receptionist was very professional, and I appreciate her helping me contact a technician. By the way, the entrance to the ensuite requires going through the restaurant next door to access it. Near the surfer paradise.

Near to bus stop and good for a short stayover. A very basic backpackers, electric socket is not enough for every bed though. Bunk bed is shaky not good for light sleeper, you can feel the movement from lower bunk.

Good location Great amenities - free breakfast which was great and items were kept well stocked, music, pool, lounge area / terrace Showers could do with a bit of updating and bath mats would be helpful There were no hooks to hang anything from in our room which was really inconvenient

I stayed at the Civic Guesthouse before I got a room in Townsville. I felt that it was a really good place to manage. I used a four-person room, but it was not very uncomfortable because there were several shared toilets and bathrooms, and the staff were all friendly ㅎㅎㅎ I want to introduce you to my friends.

Asked for the quiet room. Got the room18 up the end of the corridor and also next to the road and also next to the emergency exit. Wasn't that quiet but was ok. Room, toilets amd kitchen was very clean and new. Good place to stay but just look at the room you pick

The reason for one slug in the location is that the location is really good, but there is a little steep hill. In addition, there are traces of old facilities, especially kitchen use, so management is a little difficult. Except for that, I think the location is very good except for the hillside. I have a doctor to visit again.

Always a great getaway place to go to. Very peaceful and stress free. Facilities are what you would expect from a country hotel and the newly completed bathrooms are a bonus. Unrestored and charming hotel with great artwork everywhere. Excellent meals in the evening and a very good diy breakfast provided in the dining room.

A newly renovated hostel runs by Little Drifter in Cairns CBD area. Everything is quite new and well maintained, except for the washing machines (quite a few are broken and still waiting to be fixed, only 2-3 machines are working, both laundry and drying cost $6 each time so that would be $12 in total if you wash and dry in one go). Yet big shout out to the staff there, they’re all very friendly, responsive and helpful, and that really makes a huge difference. The whole atmosphere in the hostel is really cozy and chill. I lived in a 8-bed dorm, everyone is really respectful and quiet, especially after 22:00 when the lights are off. Kitchen has everything you need so you don’t need to worry about anything. And for ladies who might need to blow dry your hair, you can borrow hairdryer at the reception by giving out your passports/driver licenses. Regarding location, it’s definitely prime, everything is within walking distance. Woolworths is just next door, Esplanade and Lagoon are just 5 mins walk away, Cairns Central just 10 mins walk away. It’s definitely a really good choice if you’re new to the city and would like to have easy and fast access to everything.

Overall a good stay. Lucky enough to have only 2 person in a 8-bed female dormitory.
