A nice place to stay
Pros:

A really comfortable room which you would expect for the price. A great location in the middle of the desert.

Cons:

We would have liked a toaster and microwave in the room. A couch would have been good as there is nowhere to sit other than kitchen chairs.

Bella struttura ma pulizia assente che ha rovinato un esperienza bellissima
Pros:

Molto accogliente possibilità di mangiare fino a tardi e il bbq home made è una bella idea.

Cons:

Abbiamo dovuto attendere fino alle 15 essendo arrivati alle 10 di mattina per una pulizia che non è mai avvenuta….
Abbiamo segnalato più volte la cosa ma il risultato è stato sempre molto scarso e con standard di pulizia non adeguati visto il prezzo per notte ed in generale per un albergo.
Abbiamo anche segnalato un problema alla serratura della porta con il rischio che restasse aperta e visto che nessuno se ne è occupato abbiamo provveduto ad eseguire una piccola riparazione da soli.

Pros:

整體的舒適度很不錯，隔音比想像中好，員工也友善，洗衣烘衣也可以免費使用（洗衣液要額外付費）

Cons:

如果是想要省餐費的話，需要選擇青年旅館住宿，因為如果是住飯店的話不能夠使用青年旅館的廚房，所以吃東西都需要再外面進行處理，或是只能買泡麵回去吃

Perfect for a short break to see the icon Ayres rock
Pros:

purpose made resort for visiting Ayres rock. Choice is limited and Outback worked for us. Bonus was the good entertainment at night time.

Cons:

Standard of food on offer was only passable given the location. The staff were friendly and the cleaners were really friendly mainly local Aboriginals

Pros:

The bed was comfy, and the place had a great ambience, with live music offered in the evenings. Lots of workshops were held here to learn more about the aboriginal culture. There were tours leaving from the hotel and the staff were helpful with questions. The food options were great catering for meat eaters to vegetarians. Thank you
