Absolutely nothing.
Clean your rooms, paint a bit maybe. The floors were so greasy and just yuk. We really did not like the motel at all and could not wait to get out of there.

I liked the fact it was close to the main attractions in Cairns. Bus stops are walking distance away. The staff were friendly and tried to help where they could, when we asked for it.
Too many issues with the room, that I wasn't expecting, as didn't read the reviews before booking. Single bed wasn't comfortable at all, as can feel the springs in the mattress. Had to give my son the queen bed, as he couldn't sleep in the single one. Floor wasn't clean well at all. Looks like the dead bugs have been under the beds for ages. They need to pay attention to cleaning rooms more thoroughly. Kept getting tiny cockroaches and small bugs in the room. There was a small dining table in the room, but just 1 chair at the desk. For a 2 person room, need 2 dining chairs. We had to go to reception to get full sized towels for showering, as we were given 3 floor towels each, plus a floor towel in bathroom that had black marks on them. Wifi didn't work at all, gotta fix that issue for future tourists in the area. Shower head didn't stay up properly, no matter how much we tightened it. Water sprayed in all directions, as shower head needs to be replaced. Upon booking, it said our room would be sound proof, but we heard our neighbours and noise that went on outside the room. Not sound proofed at all. Paid $500 for 4 nights, which is a rip off for what we got. Dirty patches on the ceiling. Powerpoint in the bathroom didnt work in room 215. Unsafe to use as was loose.

The fact that the car park was off the street and safe. The bed was very comfortable and quiet space, couldn't hardly hear the traffic.
Really enjoyed our stay, thank you 😊
There is nothing we could fault about our stay.

bathroom had mould all over the ceiling. the double bed had the springs coming through. we had to sleep on the 2 single beds in the room & even they were very uncomfortable. the after hours side door remained unlocked. not good for security. for the price it was terrible. the backpackers would have been better. never again

Perfectly located in the heart of Shinjuku, Just steps from Golden Gai. Tons of restaurants and shopping, 7 minute walk to the train station. Steps away from two conviene stores. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room were good for the price. I would stay here again
Rooms were small but that’s normal for Japan. Not much else

A good spot for our one night in Cairns on our way through to Cape Tribulation. We didn't arrive until almost 3am but everything went very smoothly. The key to our room was easily accessed from a lock box and the lights had been left on in our room to make it more welcoming.

Close to the center of Cairns. Basic room but was clean and comfortable and had everything you needed.
Was occasionally a bit noisy with the road out the front.

Location
The smell of Cigarettes smoke , the bath towel you mose of well used the toilet paper to dry your self that were this hard and old , because of the smell of cigarette I had to leave motel very early in morning as it made me sick , would never stay here again because of that
0.5 / 5.0
Price was fair for location. Room was simple, and clean. As described.
There was an altercation by other guests on our first night booked. Due to concerns about our safety we left early the next morning, leaving the room spotless and found accommodation elsewhere. Due to no staff being at the facility, we found it hard to communicate. Follow up phone calls explaining our situation were meet with no support, or issue of refund for the remaining nights.
2.0 / 5.0
We were given our room straight away after arriving at the motel, even though it was only 1000.
The location made it easy to walk to shops, restaurants nearby.
The double bed did not have a comfortable mattress - very lumpy.
Towels were not up to standard - thin and threadbare.

Nice place to stay
Parking out on street was a little unsettling for us.
A lot of light in the room at night.
Room was a little overdone with glen20 spray and could have been aired some more before our check in, however was finished not long prior to our arrival.

The pools
The laundry times
1.5 / 5.0
Sheridan Cairns Motel had extra greeting staff upon our arrival that shocked us - team of cockroaches. The building was run down and one of the pull out sofa bed had mold ridden. laundry machines were quite outdated but, worked by coin operations.
There was no breakfast being served at all, as your website had misled us to believe by writing the hours of breakfast service. Everyone - 8 people were equally shocked by the poor condition and lack of service for the value that we paid.

Family room was near the pools, so kids were able to swim with my supervision while relaxing in my room
The ramp leading up to toilet/bathroom. Slippery when wet and there was no floor mats
2.5 / 5.0
Clean enough, but very tired decor. Had the really noisy main road right outside our tiny balcony, so not a pleasant place to sit. Ask for a room at the back of the building if you stay.
Only one towel supplied for two of us, no hand towel or bathmat. Pretty basic.
0.5 / 5.0
Reception closed early with no communication about doing so when we were checking in, so we were forced to speak with after hours staff at only 2pm in the afternoon. We were given keys via a safety deposit box, to which we then discovered that instead of the one bedroom apartment we booked, we were given a single room with one bed. We booked for six guests, so this was not sufficient.
We then had to contact after hours staff AGAIN who were absolutely no help and extremely rude, continually putting us on hold and transferring us for simply asking why we were not given the room we booked. They could not give us a straight forward answer. After having to speak with multiple people, they allocated us another room which was still not the original room we booked, and which we had to pay for on top of the original room. They then told us that the room we booked online DID NOT EXIST?
The room they offered to replace it did not fit all six adults, either, and so we had to ring after hours AGAIN. No apologies or anything from them. They told us to speak with reception in the morning. The room they gave us didn’t even have toilet paper.
After an exhausting ordeal, in the morning, we spoke with the manager refunded the original room, and were told that the whole thing was a big mistake.
However, we will not be returning and would not recommend this motel to anyone.
Nothing was as advertised, and staff were extremely unprofessional and rude.
