Couteous and helpful staff but room needs improving, for example repairs needed to a damaged wall, mattress springs worn out on one side of the bed and mini fridge in poor condition.

Good secure parking,. Old but clean rooms. We were well looked after by all staff members. Microwave oven would of been good as lacking in cooking facilities. We stayed 9 nights whilst waiting for caravan repairs. Would stay there again.

We had two rooms at this property. The property is very old and requires repairs; holes in walls, peeling paint, broken tiles, broken bathroom fixtures. Blood on the wall in one room. Beds old and not in great condition. Shower drain blocked in one of our two rooms. Bedding and linen clean and fresh. Water was hot. Very limited options in Derby.

2/10 Poor

Room was disgusting, had cockroach and mouse droppings in the corners of the room. The door frame was falling apart and on the second day when we opened the door, a piece of the door frame fell down on us. The walls beside the bed were covered in fingerprints and dirt/muck from previous people who had slept in the bed and rubbed up against the wall. The first room we were in had a queen bed and a single, a room designed to accommodate 3 people, however we only had one towel, one coffee cup and one spoon. After the door frame fell apart onto us, we asked to change rooms, we were given a twin room with two single beds, the beds were covered in hairs, and in our second room we only had ONE BLANKET. I’m not sure who the housekeeping team are here, but they really need to use some common sense so that a room made up to fit 3 people don’t have to share one coffee cup and one towel!!!

The drains were blocked in the bathroom. The floor was dirty. The pool did not look swimmable so didn’t risk it. We will not be staying here again. We don’t usually care to much for where we stay, not much bothers us but definitely won’t be back.

It was okay. Just hard to get into but then it’s really secure. Didn’t like the bond of $200 as there was nothing in the rooms that was worth the bond it pretty basic staff were lovely overall a good place to stay if your not sure of the outback town.

Good location. Grumpy man demander a $200 security deposit. Rooms not very well equiped. Friday night music from the hotel was terrible. Could not watch tv or talk on phone. Music went till after 12.00 then patrons spilled out into car park making a lot of noise till about 2.00

Very disappointed. Good bed but the rest was very very ordinary. Not a chair to sit on. More like a donga in a mining camp. We wouldn’t return.

No working TV in the room as advertised. We moved room but still the TV was not working. Rooms were in need of maintenance. Reception was quite difficult to get hold of. Would not stay there again or recommend it to anyone.

Couldn’t get access to property. Had to ring 7 times and ultimately jumped the fence and spoke with another resident to find the manager. Accommodation air cons not on so rooms hot for a long time. White ants in the skirting boards and pool green

We had booked and paid for two rooms via Expedia. As it turned out, the facility was closed down due to lack of staff and we were not informed of this. We then had to find alternative accommodation. All efforts to get a refund from either Boab Inn or Expedia have to date been unsuccessful. The Boab Inn has since contacted us and we have been told that the refund has to come via Expedia as the original booking was made through them. No assistance has been offered from Boab Inn.
