28 November 2009	Customer review kitchen facilities were excellent. however, unimpressed with the staff. we bought an accomodation and transfer package for magnetic island on the basis that it was saving us alot of money - we were told that the ferry from townsville to the island was 80$ return, this is not true it is 29$!! most of the staff are travellers so do not have indepth knowledge of the area which we found frustrating.	45%

19 October 2009	Customer review quite nice place but not that good roomconditions (stinky and warm, aircondition can only be turned on and off by frontdesk)	80%

04 June 2009	Kate Lucey A little bit out of Cairns town but run a free bus back and forth until 3.30am so all good there, nice swimming pool and a good, big bar with free pool tables and a decent happy hour. Also volleyball courts and a big kitchen. The 'free meal' is advertised on their website as being a free dinner, but once you arrive they tell you it's a very small entree sized portion - so true, one night it was a small piece of garlic bread! Stayed at Global Palace backpackers in cnetral cairns who give a meal ticket for a pub down the road for a free dinner, which is an actual meal and you have 5 options to choose from! Similar prices to Serpent too - and a pool on the roof.	57%
