It's certainly a budget motel but the caretakers are lovely people. No toilet in the room I had so it was a communal amenities block which wasn't a problem. The pool looked really great but I didn't have a dip in it. The camp kitchen was the winner for me.

This property has the feel of a hostel but it is clean and has a camp kitchen which is extensively equipped. Initially we had an issue with keys fitting doirs and room not made up. The host imnediately upgraded us, with apology, to a room with an ensuite and fully equipped kitchen. The facility to cook food via the camp kitchen or in room is one we valued as the food choices in town were expensie and not to our taste. The bathrooms were well stocked with soaps, shampoos and body wash normally expected with higher cost hotels. The beds were very comfortable. The staff were amicable and helpful at all times. I would stay again.

For a budget accommodation, this property went beyond my basic expectation. The room was well-appointed, clean, spacious and has good ventillation. Hotel manager was very welcoming and transparent in his communication. If affordability and practicality are your main travel considerations, this property is highly recommended should beautiful Cooktown be in your bucket list.

Over all the property was good. The bed I slept in was hard and you could feel the springs. When I woke I had a sore back and pressure points specially my hips.

Fantastic lower cost option. Well managed property

I think a lot of previous reviews can be dis-regarded as there is new management there. The new boss ( Col ) is right on top of managing this place. For the properties age it is very clean and tidy. I had one of the ensuite rooms and was very happy - comfy bed / airco / lotsa hot water. Plenty of onsite parking and if you want - full kitchen / cooking facilities available. If you're doing Cooktown on a budget, I 101% recommend this place.

Property centrally located and clean. Whilst Cooktown is isolated and accommodation might be limited, the facilities were very basic and relativey expensive. For example, there were no chairs in the room. Satisfactory for a one night stay.

The unit was small but comfortable. We had booked a unit with a kitchenette but neither of the hotplates worked! Also the motel is near the main road and heavy traffic was loud in the early morning.
