모텔 노마드(Motel Nomad)

I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL. DEFINITELY WOULDN'T STAY THERE AGAIN. The tarrif charged was $140 per night. They claim a 3 to 4 star rating but this is TOTAL RUBBISH. It is places like this that give genuine accommodation in Cairns a bad name. The place looked great from the outside however upon obtaining the key and making my way to the room the real picture emerged. It became quite clear that this place relies primarily on supplying emergency accommodation. The general appearance of the room I was given was very dated, generally grubby and numerous faults which would not have taken a lot of TLC to overcome appeared to be totally ignored. Noisy other residents were evident all night, empty beer cans were left lying around in various places, external ash trays were not emptied. I stayed one night and then went elsewhere. When returning the key on checkout the advertised reception time was 9am but at 9.30am it was still not open. I managed to call an after hours number and someone came and opened up. I presented the lady with a list of failings but the impression given was that of "Tell someone who cares".

I would suggest NBN better internet …Yhe pool was not clean and the yards where untidy and air conditioner could be updated But other than that injoyable and Convieniet

The room was full of cockroaches and I left the room. The receptionist mentioned me I would get a refund for the half and never happened. After time I called back and the management told me was her first week working there and never heard something about it but she will check the situation to help me with the refund but definitely never happened. So disappointing.

Worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Beggars knocking on door at night. Fights outside. Worms in the pool, broken lights. Broken tiles, peeling paint, holes in walls, broken doors. Terrible bed and pillows. Made us pay $440 extra because they had squatters who broke the room we booked. Police constantly there. Manager lied and told us different stories every day. Felt very unsafe. Locked everything up when we left the room. We were the only guests. The rest were emergency housing. Almost got mugged getting dinner. Never go out alone. Worst hotel ever.

Only stayed the one night so it was ok for our needs. Staff were friendly upon checkin. Room was clean but furniture, fittings and hotel in general are dated and in need of a facelift.

The place was filthy, shower doors were disgusting, plug holes filthy, bedding did not fit the bed and had not been washed for weeks. There was a colony of ants in the bathroom, tv needs to be replaced, the floor had not been washed for days black feet after ten minutes. The cupboards were not even clean little own the contents, the top of the bench was covered in grease. They don’t know what a tea towel is little own what it does. Never again.

Needed to make an emergency booking, and reaching the motel at 8PM, no one was at the front desk. Needed to make a phone call to confirm about the check-in, however, the phone number written on the door did not have a local area code, and could not call from the cell phone. The person at the restaurant next door was kind enough to let me use a phone. No instruction on the Wi-Fi connection in the room, and needed to call again.

The room was absolutely RIDDLED WITH COCKROACHES!! I’ve never seen that many insects in my whole life. I woke up at midnight to cockroaches in my bed, on every wall in my room! They were all through my suitcase inside my shoes and clothes. It was like something out of a horror movie. I went to reception and there was no one there, and no emergency after hour number to call. I had no choice but to book a room in the Novotel as it was the only Hotel available at that time of the morning. It cost me $450 which I was really unhappy about. Thankfully management issued me a refund the following day, however this does not make up for the horrible experience I was put through and the cost to my second Hotel room. I will NEVER stay in this Hotel again and I strongly advise that you don’t either.

Looks nothing like the pictures or as described! Got in at 2 am with 3 extremely tired children to a room that had bunk beds with no safety rail, water stained mattresses, ants crawling EVERYWHERE mould in the poor excuse of a kitchen, air con did not work fans did not work, no screens on windows so that kids can open the windows and fall out( placed on upper level when we asked for ground level) Permant residents in room next door with rubbish and smoke butts littered all over the balcony . Daylight revealed a unuseable pool full of slime and god knows what else. Whole building smelt of ****. And in the middle of a industrial estate. Management gave some money back but not all. Avoid at all costs it is a absolute disgrace! Luckily managed to find much nicer accomadation at the pullman - MUCH NICER:)
