  I stayed at 201 Lake Street with my partner on 2 occasions in November – December 2016.
  
  There is a general atmosphere of poor management and decay about this place, even though it’s only a few years old. It’s located on the noisiest roundabout in Cairns with garbage trucks making a dreadful racket in the morning, cars, buses and trucks honking and screeching all day and half the night and accompanying dirt from the traffic covering the balcony with a layer of grime.
  
  These are NOT serviced apartments (despite the price), unless you call a once weekly perfunctory mopping of the floor and changing towels and linen ‘service’. You will NOT get replacement soap, washing up liquid, dishwashing soap, laundry soap, milk, toiletries etc etc and if you ask for these items you will be told to buy your own. However, there are no decent shops nearby.
  
  There was grime in every corner of the apartment, the washing machine leaked, the hob light did not work and the hand basin sink was totally blocked on arrival (was fixed promptly). Cooking utensils were minimal, no paring knife, the extractor fan thick with grease, no dish drainer, no clothes drying line or rack, the hot air clothes drier squeaked interminably, the furniture was chipped and dated and the ridiculous sofa had to be seen to be believed; it was almost at floor level and very uncomfortable. Mold in the shower. TV and DVD player did not, or could not be encouraged to work.
  
  A few good points …. It’s near the hospitals if you’ve got business there, otherwise a good 30 minutes walk to the Lagoon and town centre, the bedroom OK, the pool OK, parking OK, free wifi, even if you have to log on every time you use it.
  
  If you arrive at night and depart in the morning you’ll survive this place. If you are staying for more than a day you will be tearing your hair out and should seek a quieter, better run apartment.
