"Bad deal."

An experience never to be repeated! To find the place take a long written instructions or copy the coordinates off the site. By name it's impossible. Telephone contact is non-existent. On arrival had to hunt around for the reception, until a half dilapidated sign pointed me to what can only be described as an unkempt store room. A sprawled individual eventually called someone to help me. The booked room itself was okay, but nothing special. The bed base made of pallets could have been made to size. As it was, I kept grazing my legs getting in and out of bed. I had to wait outside for the room to be prepared (it was around 18h00) and the dust and debris cleared. To compensate for the lack of an en-suite bathroom, I was pointed to an outside toilet/shower combination. That was some experience, a first for me. The so-called bathroom had clear glass windows, floor to ceiling, facing the communal dining area, in both, the toilet and the shower! What a sight for the guest and the diners. There was a communal kitchen, self-service, and an open outside dining area, but no restaurant of any kind, either in the premises or nearby. The only one known, the prawn shack, only serves pre-booked meals. The closest take-away (not even sit down) is nearly 25 km away. The room was not serviced. The advertised telephone number was not answered. E-mails were not answered. It was a disappointment. Granted, it was a last minute need for accommodation. But now we know why it was available.
