I had a pleasant experience overall at the Broken Hill Outback Resort. The new amenities and spacious King Room with a lovely spa were highlights, offering a great view of the surrounding hills. However, there were some teething issues, such as the inconsistent water quality and limited cooking facilities that could be improved.

My stay at the Broken Hill Outback Resort was overall wonderful, especially with the friendly staff and clean facilities. However, the internet connection was spotty and the water quality could use improvement. I appreciated the tranquility of being away from the city, but the minor drainage issue in the showers was a bit of a drawback.

The facilities were generally well-maintained, with clean laundry options available and some great amenities like a jacuzzi. However, the water in both the jacuzzi and the shower had a yellow/brown tint, which detracted from the luxury feel.
