I
tell ya lookin for a Down Under cheap hotel in Cairns up in Queensland
Australia was one of the toughest places I have been to yet for finding
a good cheap hotel, just as I was going to give up, I stopped one
more time at Adobe and they bent over backwards to help me out and
the price was right at $50 with some larger rooms up to $60, now that
price maybe a little higher now but i know that they are going to
do their best to keep the price of their fine hotel down. Don't forget
to tell them that Chuck sent ya!
The hotel
has all newly refurbished rooms taken care of by his extended family.
They have a Salt water pool all rooms have air con and hot water Cable
TV with a decent size screen Laundry room and even a place to do some
cooking like you would find in a Hostel but you don't have to share
the bathroom with half od Europe and part of the subcontinent. to
finish it up they also have off street parking so if you are doing
the van thing around the down under your set.
