It was clean. It was cool because I hate the heat. There were plentiful towels. The concierge/owner was friendly. He was helpful. The amenities were up to my expectations. I was very happy with the overall experience.

The only small aspect that I would comment on is that it was quite hidden, except the sign. I guess the bushes were covering up the vicinities. So maybe trimming the bushes would be ideal. Another element is that the locks was a mission to open. The only reason why I did not score it down was because the concierge/owner explained it to me earlier on and gave me tips on how to open it.

The folk at Jackaroo were really good. I stayed there just before cyclone Jasper hit town and was booked in again a couple of days later but couldn't make it back to Mareeba due to road closures. They allowed me to change my booking at short notice and at no cost, very thankful for their understanding. I come to Mareeba about once a year, and won't be staying anywhere else when I do.

The owner was very accommodating. I arrived during the morning. Was able to leave a few bags in the room and collect the keys 5 hours prior to the check in time. The staff were all so friendly. It was a pleasure to stay here.

There was nothing I didn't like

The pool was amazing for an afternoon cool off.

Everything was just as it should be. The lock broke on the door and was fixed promptly. We needed an extension cord and it was happily given to us.

Spacious room and bathroom, immaculate. Undercover parking right outside our door. Back door leading out to table and chairs.

There was only one bedside table. I would have liked another bedside table, with lamp.
