Für eine Übernachtung noch tolerierbar
Pros:

Es gibt leider nichts was mir gefallen hat außer das es in unmittelbarer Nähe ein Restaurant gab, welches sehr gutes Essen anbot.

Cons:

Das Zimmer ist klein, das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis war leider erschreckend. Das Hotel liegt mitten in der Wüste, direkt neben einer Tankstelle. Die Ausstattung und das Komfort sind leider nicht ausreichend.

Okay for one night on your way to Uluru / Alice Springs
Pros:

This is the only accomodation between Alice Springs and Uluru, so no alternative.
Good that we could have an overnight stay. It's a real truck stop, no comfort.
Bed was okay, but bathroom was very basic (but positive was that there was a bathroom).
Restaurant was quite okay.

Cons:

Needs quite some modernisation / refurbishment.
