The Croc, as the locals call it, has been standing there in the excessive heat and humidity for a while now, so don't expect everything to be shining new and clean. The rooms are sizable and well furnished. But the bathroom and the "kitchen" area (doorway), although both well stocked, are very small hence difficult to use, also in need of a renovation. They could have easily reduced the size of the living area and gave them both some more space. I don't understand why they had to design them so cramped. There's a plug-in flashlight by the bathroom door for night adventures as there's no public lighting beyond the immediate premises of the building. You may find one or two lights in the room are broken too. Maybe due to its remote location, a thorough fix-up is not easily done. The staff members are efficient and very helpful. But seriously understaffed during wet season. Decent in-house restaurant that provides three meals a day (usually continental only in the morning, no full buffet but with a la carte available as well). All in all, apart from the particular shape of the build, pretty standard. A small swimming pool in the courtyard, convenient and good for socialising. But you don't have to be restricted to it. Just some 200m away is the town's public swimming pool which only costs $5 per entry and it's a hidden gem! You simply have to check it out. The only place to be in the unbearable arvo heat.

Great place to stay
The room was great, the service excellent, the food very good. We arrived just after 12 noon and check in was not untill 3pm. But the receptionist checked if the room was ready, which it was, and checked us in. 3 hrs would have been difficult to fill in Jabiru.
