Based on the $76 internet special the Lodge room is not to be missed. Rooms have TV, A/C, fridge, tea & coffee equipment , microwave & ensuite facilities. Rooms are clean the on site pub served good food. The only small down side is getting in & out of the hotel via vehicle you have to drive around a small... More

We were attracted by the Wallabies that come to feed in the carpark at dusk and we were not disappointed. The place is basic but that is what it is advertised as so you do know what you are getting. The receptionist was lovely and very helpful. The onsite pub served great food. The room was clean and beds comfortable.... More

If you can get a decent motel room in Australia for $70 (internet special), that deserves a 4 star rating. This motel should be considered an alternative to staying at Ayers Rock which has very expensive hotels, particularly if you are happy just to leave early and get back late on a day trip out there. Unleaded was $2.095 at... More

While this accommodation is very cheap, it was advertised as a kitchenette room, but all they provided was a kettle, toaster and microwave. Basically this is a motel room. We expect cooking facilities, cutlery and crockery, and a sink to wash up in at the very least in a kitchenette, and when we complained we were told that what was... More

We stayed here on 2 separate nights before and after a tour to Uluru. We have the same room both nights. The first night the room seemed clean although basic but fitting with what we had paid. We had trouble locking the patio doors but managed to get them closed eventually. The walls are very thin and we could here... More

We only stayed one night here between exploring the East and West Macdonnell ranges. It was an excellent location at the scenic gap between both ranges - lovely rocky backdrop. The wallaby feeding was a highlight of course and I was glad to learn they restrict the food sold to 40 bags per night (we saw about 40 wallabies so... More

Excellent value for money. No internet, mobile or TV reception, which should be made known to intending patrons, but otherwise very good. Including cheerful assistance at 4am when I locked my room with one case still inside. Rock wallabies an added attraction.
