A really cool experience for my family of three kids. Spacious room, a fairly dated but I expected that in Coober Pedy. The hotel was a lot larger than I expected. We paid a fair price and I would recommend this hotel to friend and family.

Rooms need an upgrade and better air-conditioning more fans or more ventilation. Room was hot and stuffy after a long day drive. Reception staff were friendly on phone.
