"Room was clean and tidy. All amenities worked, plenty of storage space and large fridge was very welcome. Although room has air conditioning which should work fine when temperatures are 30°C or lower, it struggled to keep the room cool when temperatues hit 40°C. Hotel is pretty central in Alice, with easy walking distance of several shops, though the surrounding roads do get busy. Staff were friendly."
