Gilligan's Hotel & Resort Cairns
57-89 Grafton Street, 4870 Cairns, Australia – Excellent location – show map
I loved the location. I loved the common areas, it’s really nice to have so many spaces besides my room to relax in. The kitchen was really big which was nice at night when everyone’s cooking. The security to get into the building was also good
