“Very nice place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

people found this review helpful

We stopped to this motel just for 1 night but we felt at home and wanted to stay in Alice Springs more. The managers were very helpful and kind with us. They suggested us some nice things to do in the area (there are many), there is also a supermarket just nearby and a kitchen where you can cook your own things. Breakfast (included) is ok. Rooms are quite big and decent. There is a pool (quite useful here) and internet works fine if I remember correctly. Rates are honest and you could decide to stop for a few days here in A. S..
Worth certainly a visit.

PS The managers strongly recommended not to go out after 8 pm due to the aggressive attitudes of native people (aborigens). So there is a locked gate and they suggest to go out anytime with the car. They are probably too worried but we did not dare to go out in spite of their strong advises. A pity because we were really interested to real native Australian people, but we had no time to try meeting some of them. Being often in Napoli, Palermo or other cities (like NYC, Paris) where criminality is very high, I doubt that in A. S. there are serious problems... and we strongly sympathize with natives anyway. Your turn to try...

Room Tip: Check for spiders! You are in Central Australia!

“a bonsa place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 December 2011

Stayed here for the express purpose of doing Ayres Rock with Emu run tours.
To be perfectly honest, having come straight from quality hotels in Hong Kong and Sydney, when we first arrived I thought OMG what have we done.
The place looked a bit shabby, I couldn't work out how to lock the room door, and no one was around to help,
However once we settled in and accepted our surroundings, we felt more than at home,and this was in no small measure due to the generousity of spirit of our hosts.

This place is an easy and enjoyable walk into town and a good place to come back to and relax in.

The main pool was undergoing rennovation but I was able to use the small ( tiny) pool around the side.
Made good use of the BBQ and generally chilled after our arduous but glorious trip to Ayres Rock with Emu Run Tours who I cannot praise highly enough.

So final verdict get your city hat off and your outback hat on we would certainly come back again without hesitation.
