Stay at Alice Springs Hotel
This hotel is in city center. No sleep at all due to fights with aborigines both in hotel and on the street. I do not recommend single women stay here. Dangerous to go out of hotel. Stay near the Hilton or Crowne hotels for safer accommodations.

Diplomat Hotel Alice Springs
