Underground dugout at the Comfort Inn in Coober Pedy. If you ever wanted to have the Tatooine experience, this is it. Surprisingly cozy. #LifeAtExpedia
From Alice Springs head south along Maryvale road to Titjikala, then follow the signs down a long (43km) dirt track to some interesting rock "pillars". Definitely worth a look. #hiking
Blackall is a remote, rural town in central western Queensland. Located just 200km from Longreach, this town has so much to see. Make sure you stop and take in the various artworks scattered around and say hello to the friendly locals.

8/10 Very Good! (572 reviews)
The one person who could check us in was not available when we arrived. Not her fault, but surely more than one member ( there was another ) should know how? The room was ok, but the curtains did not cover the big front window, letting the street lights light up the room.
