Espy旅馆

I really enjoyed my stay at the Espy! I’d just finished up a long study abroad program that was mainly camping so I had a ton of gear to carry around with me. Luckily they let me drop my bags off before check-in and keep them there after check-out before I left to the airport. I got a private room and it was probably the best deal in cairns! It’s pretty simple, but has everything you need for a short stay. One tiny thing I couldn’t figure out was the bathroom light that never turned on for me, but did work since it was sometimes on from other people. (Maybe it’s a me not understanding Australia power switches thing)

I had a private twin room. Everything was clean and tidy. There was appropriate power outlets and storage units to manage my stuff. I stayed two separate times for just over three weeks, the Kitchen was well organized and stocked. The refrigerator with baskets was a great option as the baskets kept everything tidy and easy to access, the clever dry storage drawers for bags made it easy to access foods stored there. The location along the esplanade was perfect for exploring the waterfront area. A "Wooly's" was a 5 minute walk and a Coles about 15 minutes away in the Central Mall. The library was also about a block away which was great place to spend several days working remotely. The staff were great and friendly, also met some wonderful people from around the world as they passed thru. After almost 9 months of traveling in New Zealand and Australia, and staying in lots of hostels, this was a great place to explore the Cairns area from. Would highly recommend!

I loved the spacious kitchen and clean bathrooms facilities. The location was perfect! Just next to the lagoon, shopping malls, bus stop and the beach front.
