Edge Apartments

Only problem- no wifi at rooms. Also not many food options around this place. Except this everything is good about this place.

Management was extremely accommodating when additional units were required at short notice. Units were clean, comfortable and central to everything we needed to enjoy 10 days in the city. The complex is secure and quiet. Other guests and permanent residents were very cordial. The pools were clean and having a choice between two meant that one was always available. Car parking was available in the secured assigned area of the car park with plenty of additional parking surrounding the complex. Will stay again.

OVER PRICED AND UNDER SERVICEDTwo friends and i stayed here for a week in October. The place is very VERY basic, think cheap caravan cabins! For the 1500 we paid, i think it is unacceptable to have cheap facilities, and poor service. For an extra couple of hundred we could have had a 5 star hotel on the beach front.Think twice before booking as there is ZERO wifi in the rooms so you will have to use up your plan data (free wifi only available in the reception area) and if you have kids, there’s no Netflix or anything in the rooms.Bed was totally uncomfortable, hard, springy and cheap bedding. Dusty and not relaxing. After early starts daily and long days exploring around Cairns, a comforting sleep is essential. You won’t get that here! Showers and bathrooms need an update badly, leaks and poor ventilation.Carpets were old and stained.Location is a bit of a walk to the main part of town (20-30 mins walk) with no supermarket so you will need a hire car.If you don’t mind really basic, it probably won’t bother you so much, but if you want a bit more luxury, you’re gonna have to spend more for that!Place is good for young travellers who just like to dump their stuff and spend little time in their accommodation. But if that’s you, save your money and book a backpackers! They’re great in Cairns!

Good price, bring your own pillows as there is 1 per person and they are well worn. Air conditioning didn't work in one of the bedrooms. Advertised as *Free WiFi * in one room on ground floor.

Rented for 2 years.- master room was slowly floodedSo, don't rent on side of units 314, 214, 114. Leaking pipes were fixed. However, building structural defects are still present. Walls are still wet during rain (not fixable)-we have oven and aircon system broken and still awaiting repair.- I have my push-bike stolen from secured garage place.Experience overall is non pleasant

Not a nice place to stay. The place was infested with bugs and ants. The kitchen was super dirty as well as the cutlery, plates and glasses. The walls are so thin you can hear everything from the next room! The balcony looked like the budget had run out to complete it and it was on a bit of an angle. The shower had no pressure. Was not advised on how to get into the building after hours if not entering via the garage. No wifi. No cushions on the couch, had to use pillow from bedroom. Not worth the money spent!

Absolutely appalling for the amount charged. First off the management was no where near what was expected; took over 24 hours for a couple of extra towels, randoms that weren’t residents skinny dipping in the pools & using leisure facilities with no repercussions from the caretaker. Main air conditioner in living room was mouldy, both showers had plumbing issues with hot water so most the stay was cold showers. The master bedroom toilet leaked, tiles were not flush on floor so a few stubbed toes was a reoccurring problem, and the single beds in the 2nd bedroom were the most uncomfortable beds to sleep on. Next, the stove took over 30 minutes to heat up and the dishwasher would only turn on once in a blue moon if you were lucky. That sums up my stay at edge apartments, I am absolutely disgusted and they will never be getting our business again.

Fabulous large apartment, really liked 001. Comfy bed, ground floor with a large patio

One of the worst places to stay or live. The apartments are next door to the Summer House Backpackers and Bar which is used by backpackers and locals alike. Music is loud and on weekends becomes excessive not to mention the patrons talking can be heard in all rooms even with doors and windows shut. All this starts around midday and continues to late evening sometimes up to almost midnight. Opening the balcony door to let airflow is terrible as the noise can overpower conversation and the TV.There is also multiple holiday rentals in the building which has on many occasions have been rented out to people throwing parties, excess noise and banging of furniture and shouting can be heard even a few units away. Onsite building manager does nothing to help, calls are ignored, not followed up and when you finally get through to him, he can be rude and aggressive and will not do anything about the issue.Also location is not that great, it's right at the end of the esplanade, 30min walk from the main restaurants and bars of cairns. Not much around here and would require car or taxi to get to the main area especially in the hotter months when walking would be to hot.Overall a poor experience, constant excessive noise and poor customer service from the building manager, which is a shame as the unit was a fantastic size and well appointed with a nice communal pool. Shame it is located next door to a Backpackers and bar and units being rented out to unruly and noisy guests.

I am writing to express my strong dissatisfaction with the hotel which I unfortunately chose to spend my holiday in Cairns. I have booked the Edge Apartments Cairns" through Booking.com and visited on 21-26 May
