I did a same day booking, looking for a place half way between Alva Beach and Cairns. Great find. I booked a sea view queen and found the room to be rather impressive for the price: clean, well appointed, great view, and a lovely restaurant. While I was only there overnight, I could certainly see a longer stay being enjoyable.

Beautiful room and super helpful staff. I was able to check in after staffed hours without any hassle. Plus, as I was leaving, they called me to let me know I left something in the room. Location is only a 5 minute walk away from the beach, restaurants, adventure and skydiving facilities.

If you have to visit or stay in Ingham, this is the place. VERY highly recommend. Large 2 bedroom apartments with free shared laundry facilities. And pleasant outdoor areas. The host was very helpful. And helped me out with an error I made in my original booking.
The apartment has everything you need and is very well appointed and tastefully decorated. It is right on the highway and near the train line. But although ear plugs were provided, I didn’t find it noisy. In fact; it was very calm...

The property is amazing. Direct access and view to the ocean and walking distance to town. The rooms however are very tired and need a complete overhaul. Reception staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The poor restaurant staff are extremely understaffed and at times run off their feet. Unfortunately whilst we were there they were undergoing renovations to the restaurant and bar area which wasn’t pleasant when trying to have a nice relaxing breakfast. We opted to eat out after this...

Stayed one night for work and found a beautifully clean room, excellent service from staff and had a delicious lunch. It is an older hotel which has been renovated nicely and the price was excellent.
I stayed in a balcony room which did have traffic noise (as I was advised of before hand and asked if this was ok - and it did not bother me at all) but if you are a light sleeper I would suggest asking for a room not on the balcony.
