Fantastic Experience

My stay was excellent. I got stranded about 149ks outside of Tennant due to two flat tyres and when I finally got back to Tennant the friendly staff helped me settle in allowed me to park my car until the tyre shop openned. The staff hospitality was above and beyond and I highly recommend to stay here when you are in Tennant Creek.

We booked this property specifically for the pool. The pool was unable to be used, the aircon did not work or the wifi. We often travel through Tennant Creek but decided to stay, unfortunately, it will be our last. The staff were very good and seemed embarrassed from all the things that were not working properly

Was overpriced. More than $200 a night should have gotten me an apartment not a very ordinary motel room. Bums walking in off the street begging for cigarettes. Teenagers running around the forecourt all night up to god knows what. For that price the place should be gated.

The property is old & needs some maintenance. The shower was completely cold & the floor in the shower looked very stained. Linen on pillows was stained. Also no teaspoons to stir your coffee in the morning. No microwave in room also. The rooms need a good airing.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
I booked this accommodation as it was recommended by friends that had travelled through the Northern Territory. I was travelling with friends from the United States, so we had two separate rooms. They had no hot water either last night or this morning. They tried to contact reception on both occasions, not no one ever got back to them. We left before 7 in the morning. When I rang later that day I was brushed off by the person that answers and they never called me back. I expect some sort of refund for this appalling service and lack of available hot water.

Comfortable bed, aircon working very well, also liked having the ceiling fan. Everything was clean and functioning properly. Tiled floor felt nicer than the carpets you find in some places that feel a bit worn or dirty. Quite a nice sized room, definitely not pokey. Great having the dining table & chairs & still felt spacious.
