Parking was easy access, the staff were very helpful. I'd left my phone charger behind and received a phone call 5 or 10 mins after we'd handed in the key, we were on our way to the train station to go on the Kuranda Scenic Railway trip so the lovey lady held my phone charger in the office with my name on it so I could collect it on our return. I was very grateful. Thank you ๐Ÿ˜Š
