This place is filthy! Bathroom is appalling and water does not drain properly. Curtain hanging off the wall, carpet pulled away from tiles, AC extremely noisy and locals in the drain next door very noisy. Also the owners dog attacking selected dark skinned people. My son is olive and the dog had to be kicked away from him. Management said... More

I statek there for one night driving from Darwin to Uluru. Room was ok, nothing special though. There's one think worth mentioning that relates to the whole town, but also to the motel. Everything closes down pretty early there, so bring your own supplies if you plan to arrive in the evening. If not for the friendly owners of Chinese... More

I stayed here for two weeks on business, the rooms were okay, certainly nothing special and needed updating, the air conditioners were very noisy to the point of waking you up in the night when they clicked on. The managers seem to have the opinion that the reception doesn't have to be open all day, they regularly left the front... More

I stayed here on business. The room was dingy and had not been cleaned properly. The room was not serviced the next day. There is a shortage of electrical points which means you cannot have the TV, DVD and fridge on at the same time. The room was crammed with beds (it was a booking for one). There was a... More

My family of 6 stayed here for one night on our way to Darwin. We didnt have a booking so were happy when they had a room big enough for us available. I asked to look at it first, the room was old and dated but had 2 queen beds and a bunk, and an aircon and we were only... More

This a first time ever that I have reviewed a motel before checking out. Being a former Golden Chain management couple under Stephen Drew we are disgusted at this so called 3star motel. On arrival after a long drive and needing to stop somewhere to rest we thought that this would be the place. How wrong we're we I had... More

Booked on line ages ahead of a busy period, at what I consider a premium rate for something of this standard. A week later told they were overbooked and we got bounced Ratbags I suspect they got a big booking from overseas and bounced us locals.

Keeping in mind this hotel is in Tennant Creek it wasn't too bad. The service from Yvonne on the front counter was excellent each and every time I rang and when we got there. When we called to say our shower was busted they made sure we had access to a room right next to us with a working shower.... More
