Cool stay in a hot place

Cool underground accommodation even on the hottest day. Sleeping in the underground was comfortable and unique. Pool was nice and refreshing, to help survive the hot temperatures of Coober Pedy's summer heat. The managers were very friendly and accommodating and made the stay a great one. They also operate a tour out of the same location which was convenient and well run. The guide was patient to let guests on the tour get the most out of the experience and was well worth the fee. Would recommend both the hotel and the tour to future guests.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, communication
The room was quite and plenty of parking but very 1970s decor. The accomodation was average for the price paid. A note saying it’s all about the underground unique experience was left on the kitchen table? The bathroom was filthy, outdated with cracks in the sink and the shower rose was broken and water shot out everywhere. We contacted the office by email twice but they never got back to us. Would definitely not recommend staying at Desert View Appartments 😡

Not just dirty but unclean. Blood on bathroom wall. Couches very dirty and quite old. Beds very uncomfortable. I understand it’s the outback but that doesn’t remove the need for a basic clean. Wouldn’t recommend.

Good budget accommodation

Good budget hotel. There’s no reception, check in details are provided through text message and key lock box. The rooms are quiet and clean and huge. The quality of the furnishings is basic but okay for a short stay. Lovely view from the sitting area outside.
