Clean, cheap room in the resort area next to the national park. Plenty of places to eat at the hotel with a lively bar and live music. Great place to stay for Uluru.

Where to begin. Arrived and told the receptionist that I had a disability and could she give me a convenient room. Gave me one that was the furthest, almost, from the carpark or bistro etc. Next found a dirty towel hanging on the back of shower door. No milk in fridge. Was told they don't supply milk. Said why do you have coffee, tea and sugar but no milk...dumb. No soap in shower dispenser. Had to hold up toilet seat. Then at 2.04am the smoke alarm goes off. Rang reception said they know about it and security on their way and fire brigade advised. Couldn't stay in room as too loud so waited outside in 6 degree conditions, minimal clothing on. Nobody turned up and then without any real reason alarm stopped at 2.24am. Took some time to resume sleep expecting alarm to go off again. When all these issues raised upon checking out all they said was an unconvincing sorry. Not good enough. If you pay over 300 for accommodation you do have better expectations. Perhaps an offer of refund should have been on the agenda.

Our room was a private room with an en-suite. Unfortunately, the A/C unit did not work and the floors were quite dirty upon our arrival and there was a urine smell which indicated the floors had not been mopped or bleached in a while. For the price it was not super comfortable and a disappointing experience.

部屋に入ると匂いが気になった。 シーツは清潔でよかったが、床はタイル張りでスーツケースを広げることは出来なかった。 タオルなしと書いてあったので持って行ったが、ちゃんと4人分置いてあった。 kioskのピザはおいしかった。ハンバーガーはパテが分厚くて食べ応えがあったが、少し高いと感じた。
