"The hotel is very distinctive and has many people staying there."

"Location - Walking distance to the main sites and across the street from the Greyhound bus station, which was convenient. The hotel offers a complimentary airport drop-off/on shuttle bus, which was great, and the hotel restaurant is nice. Room - It was simple (felt like a dorm room), but that wasn't a problem because it was clean, spacious, had stable internet, and good air conditioning. I would stay here again."

"Really one of a kind experience. You don't see this a lot. Really enjoyed it"

"Little hidden gem everything you need clean and unique would definitely stay again"

"Yeah it was niceish but average, didn’t come close to expectations.. $250 per night you would expect somewhat high standard. We enjoyed the experience of an underground apartment but majority of accommodation in Coober pedy gives you that experience. Have to admit, the caretaker while the owner was away - not his fault but didn’t know what he was doing. No greeting, no knowledge of tourist stuff in town, was put in different room than expected, breakfast included was 2 apples, 2 bananas, half a loaf of rock hard out of date bread, 2 mini cereal packets (1 out of date) and a million traveller jams delivered on arrival. Aircon was a pedestal fan, had to ask about wifi which was under the verandah at main house up the hill. Our room was next to messy construction site and gear for another room, had to ask for more fruit at least considering we’re there for 2 nights and stuff was expired. He delivered promptly and apologised though. Bathroom had no sanitary bin and half a roll of toilet paper, and roof not fully closed off to the rest of the unit with no ventilation. Beds in second room were covered in rock falling away from roof and through vent so had to move the bed on second night to stop getting woken up by it. No cooking utensils so had to use all our own kitchen camp stuff. Didn’t even want to ask about laundry service at this point. Note behind the door told guests not to “whinge”.. if we asked for things every time they came up we would be walking up and down the hill all day plus the caretaker was hard to locate when needed."

"I first heard of Coober Pedy on social media, for its underground homes When I checked on the map where it was, and realized it was on the way from Adelaide to Uluru, I decided to stop there for the night, and to do so in an underground home I checked what were the options, and Di's place quickly appeared to me as the best one I contacted her, she was super responsive, and friendly. She warned me she wouldn't be in town and so wouldn't be able to meet, but would love chat and give me a rundown on the dugouts and the town must sees, and I immediately felt I had made the right choice (to be noted, even if she is not home, and can't chat with you beforehand, she has a well made booklet waiting for you that will tell you all) When I arrived I got welcomed by a friend of hers, who helped me enjoy my time in town even more The place is unique, for being a dugout, bringing the benefit of underground homes for the temperatures, while you still get some daylight coming in from one side It is huge, with a patio, 3 bedrooms (with comfortable beds), 2 bathrooms (one with direct access from the bedroom, the other one featuring a spa), a kitchen, a living room... It is well equipped, with lots of kitchen appliances (including fridge, microwaves, oven, burner, teapot, coffee machine, toaster), washing machine, TV, books, boardgames... Wifi works really well By the way, I originally was gonna spend only a night there, but Di convinced me it would be better to spend another one, to spend a full day in town to explore it, and I'm so glad I did, as there's much to see: Old Timers Mine & Museum, churches (including the Serbian one), Crocodile Harry's Underground Nest, Breakaways, a kangaroo orphanage, an aboriginal art and artefacts, opal shops... Actually, in the end I would have even liked to stay a 3rd night, but it was then already booked In short: a great town, a great home, a great host So, my recommendation, don't miss your chance, stop in Coober Pedy, book this place, and do so as soon as you can to make sure it's available for your time in town (and don't hesitate to take an extra night)"
