We were back after a 12 year hiatis. Very comfortable motel room with 2 bedfooms. It is dug into the hillside, which keeps it cool. There is also air con. There is a basic kitchen with thepossibility to cook in the kitchen in the main house.
We loved sitting outside for breakfast.
Thank you for our wonderful stay!

This is was a great experience. The owner/manager provided excellent service. Great suggestions for dinner and for the underground mine museum.
The kitchen was very well stocked and very clean. There is a barbecue which would have been great to use but we chose to go out to Big Winch 360 on their recommendation. It was excellent.

Greetings was fantastic, map of area was shown with things to do, utensils, coffee availability was also good, aircon was on one setting and we could not change, shower water flow was poor, bed not made even though we were there for two nights. Door handle broken.

The Underground Motel is a unique place to stay as you are underground. I was picked up and dropped off at the airport. The rooms are cleaning and the couple who run it are very friendly and helpful.
