BUG Review
The backpackers' accommodation at the Kings Canyon Resort is part of a much larger accommodation complex. Backpackers can stay in four-bed dorms that each have their own TV, fridge and tea/coffee making facilities. There are also several very basic kitchens for travellers to use plus laundry, a swimming pool, tennis courts and several bar/restaurants. Overall, it is neat and tidy but overpriced and charmless.

Like at Uluru, you only have one dorm accommodation option at King's Canyon so you pay through the nose for it - fortunately what you get is clean and well-maintained, which eases the financial pain. The "dorm" contained proper beds (albeit on wheels) as well as a TV and fridge, however I was the only resident - hence the low atmosphere score. I would stay here again.
