Clean room with parking directly outside your door and it was very quiet overnight, so we felt safe!
The only recommendations would be that it would be handy to have a hand towel and face washer!
The onsite restaurant is spacious and quiet and we both enjoyed our meals. We received vouchers as quests which included a free drink each and 15% off our meals!

The carpark in front of out accomodation was the path for indiginous people to get home from town and they were extremely loud and frankly very scary. The Reception did not have anyone in attendance any of the times I attended. I had to phone to get someone to help me. Going to the Bistro for them to call someone to Reception was a waste of time... as after a 20 minute wait no one came to assist. A poorly run establishment that I can not recommend.

This was a very inexpensive (comparatively) hotel/motel, with a caravan park attached, which added features such as a laundry etc. You get what you pay for. This is not a 5 or4 star luxury place, and neither is the cost. I was very happy with everything about this place, but especially the helpfulness of the staff. Their next door bistro was also very moderately priced, with good quality food.

Good value motel in this desert town. Room was practical with all required amenities but a little bland (white painted concrete blocks). Good value food available on site with a discount for residents. I would stay there again if passing through Coober Pedy again. Don’t forget to pick up a fly net head covering in the petrol station next door.

Had issues with no soap in room, didn’t end getting some as reception closes at 7pm, couldn’t locate staff to get some. Sliding doors in ancient shower broken, couldn’t close to have shower properly so water going outside on floor. Very old and tired room. Had issues getting parking of vehicle, ended up right outside door on walking path, blocking. Was noisy in area during early part of night due to army crews staying in adjacent rooms.
Had a nice meal in dining of hotel resturant, basic bangers and mash, 15% off. Had to ask 3 times to get receipt for meal. Was humbugged by local aborigines as leaving venue.

Friendly staff. The fridge worked to freeze the Esky bottle. Comfortable stay. A restaurant on sight and enjoyed the meal.
Something I didn't spot until late in my stay, but instead had been using an extension cord from the wall opposite for my laptop on the desk. There is a closer power point in the place where the electric jug is stored. A power board on the bench/desk would be good, and a higher chair for working on it.

The Motel is very old and in need of substantial update.
The first room they put me in had chipped and missing tiles from bathroom entry as well as bits of the carpet ripped up and sticking out of the floor.
At first I thought there was something stuck on the floor but when one of the service people came they said it was ripped carpet and a number of the rooms are like that.
Also booked for 4 nights and paid on check in but then after first night needed to cancel the last night. When I asked about a refund they said because I booked through Expedia I would have to take it up with them which I did and Expedia contacted the management and were told policy is no refunds which considering I gave two days notice I think is pretty poor.

Comfy and welcoming

A couple of nights to relax after long driving days. The room wasn't quite ready as they'd been so busy but reception staff were excellent in getting it sorted quickly and offered a complimentary drink in the bar while I waited. The room was spacious and well appointed (could do with a couple of comfy chairs - only one in there so someone would have to sit on the bed). Bed was firm and suited my taste. Bathroom a little worn but clean and had ample toiletries, towels, etc. - lovely hot shower! Parking was at a premium if you needed it to be near your room but there was plenty not too far away. The bistro gives a good discount to hotel guests and makes great food. The young French lady who served at the bar, took food orders and delivered them was brilliant and I'm sorry I didn't get her name but I did tell the manager.

We were upstairs when we shouldn't have been. Due to me having a disabled daughter she had trouble climbing stairs. No internet at all. No microwave & breakfast bowls at least. Very very noisy. So disappointing all round.
Won't be back!

Highly recommend the Opal Inn to anyone looking for clean, comfortable budget accommodation in Coober Pedy. The onsite restaurant serves a good variety of options. The staff are all friendly and welcoming.

Loved the complimentary drink and discount with dinner. Great food options. Meals were lovely. Unfortunately there were some noisy birds nearby and we had to be careful where we parked the car. Otherwise, fantastic value for money.

We had the large room for a family. The size and price for the room was great however the room smelt a lot like body odour, especially the queen sized bed. The bed sheets and bathroom were clean. It would be good if they supplied a new sponge in kitchen as it appeared to be really old and some dish washing detergent as we had to go out and buy some.

This was the second time we stayed at the Opal Inn. The room was not as nice as the first time but we were able to check in early. No natural light in the room as the window was boarded up. Huge gum tree outside the room that was full of cockatoos from 4.30am; big mess all over the car. Bistro was excellent with a free drink and 15% off the meal.

Half drunk cup of coffee in the Coffee Cupboard was disappointing.
Poor Housekeeping!

I was told that I could park at my door. So wrong, I had to park about 30 metres away.

Cupboard door had a broken hinge.
The Bathroom window winder would not close the window.

Air conditioning, Netflix & Bed were good
Shower was hot.

Birds, cockatoos I think, in a tree on the property were very loud for most of my stay.

This property is very run down and in need of refurbishment. The meal we had at the restaurant wasn’t the best. The chips tasted like they had been reheated and the frozen vegetables were only luke warm. We received a free drink and 15% off the meal.
