This is a great place to stay in Coober Pedy. A very nice underground appartment close to everything. The only slight downside was that the wifi only works outsite the room (it can't penetrate the rock), but the manager says that will be fixed soon.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
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 The bathroom was filthy, outdated with cracks in the sink and the shower rose was broken and water shot out everywhere.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 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.
