Nice pool. Dining was limited & not very good food or drink. Female waiter was rude at Gecko’s. IGA at the resort was a convenient place to get snacks & water. Bugs & flies were horrendous & relentless; our bug nets over our hats were essential

The Lost Camel was good value - much cheaper than other nearby hotels. It had a nice pool. It was nice that it had a fridge and kettle. The hotel was clean but perhaps maintenance could be better.

The bathroom, specifically the shower stall was not clean. The shelf above where the clothes were hung was dusty. The staff were friendly and helpful. Loved the free laundry. Quiet and peaceful facilities. Conveniently located near stores.

Room was clean and convenient. Air conditioning was more than adequate. Service at reception is great, even though the reception area closes a 5pm. Issues can be dealt with at hotel next door. They provide shuttle service to and from airport.

A good stop over for 1 night before our trip room was basic but clean and had everything we needed. Close to the luttke shopping zone which was handy. Staff at the hotel were friendly and efficient. There is a nice pool area but was too cold for swimming during our stay. Price is high but all the hotels are at a premium in Uluru.
