While the rooms we booked were clean, and the accommodation was relatively inexpensive, it was not the greatest motel. We were not able to get rooms close to each other; the fridge in one room had such a bad ice build up that the door didn't close, and the laundry only had one functioning washing machine, which was very busy. On check-in, we asked a question about the area, and were told there were no brochures. We were also not advised that the dining room would not be open that evening. Overall, it was a place to sleep, but not a great experience. OK sums it up.

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.

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.
