Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

What a terrible experience. Other guests were appalled at the way I was treated. Apparently two ways to book this accommodation. Website Kathys Bnb. Or AirBnb. Soon found out if you book on airBnb Kathy ain’t too happy as she has to wait for her money (as she told me ). Hence I am a spoken to abruptly. Told off for not waiting in her lounge for the delivery of my pizza. Room had junk and an unused bar that looked awful The room had no atmosphere and was so far from homely. It cost me $170 for one night. The pillows were paper thin. The sheets cheap. Breakfast was provided I joined them ( Kathy and a couple in another room who had booked through the Kathys website ). I was instructed by Kathy to take the breakfast items from continental breakfast. Couple were having bacon and eggs I asked about the provision of bacon and eggs to which Kathy replied ‘ you don’t get that as you booked through air bnb and I have to wait for my money ‘ !!!! Was she serious. Yes. Further on she continued to be rude and ignore me infront of the other guests who acknowledged my concerns with her attitude. I discussed with her on leaving only to be told I was rude and my behaviour was not acceptable. What ??!! I had ordered the pizza and apparently that was a disruptive event I had not sat down with the other guests on my arrival but I didn’t even know they were guests till the morning as I thought they were Kathys friends. I had a shocking sleep and had to sms Kathy to postpone my breakfast until 7 am instead of 6 am as previously arranged That was apparently one of her concerns with me. She was cross at me for what seemed like the simple fact I had booked through air bnb Kathy - you need to take it off Airbnb if you don’t like their system You also need to be mindful of how your attitude may impact on people

Very well run with friendly and entertaining hosts. The place is in a green spot on East Side, within walking distance of the town with full amenities. Comfortable well equipped room and bathroom facilities. Tasty cooked breakfast. Kathy went out of her way to provide a memorable stay. I was only there for a couple of days for a funeral or would have used the pool and said hello to the chickens.

Kathy's B&B is a welcoming place that treats you like family. Kathy and her husband Carl have opened their home to guests, converting their grown sons' bedrooms into a B&B. The breakfast is hardy and tasty and the conversation engaging. It will serve you well.

We are very glad to have found Kathy's Place, and would have stayed longer if we could. Kathy and Karl have been very hospitable and generous with their time. Clean place. Friendly people. My daughter loved collecting the eggs from hens. Highly recommended.

Kathy was really really nice and attentive. She picked us up since our bus couldn't reach her place and she also gave us a ride another day. Breakfast was very good and sleep quality was also ok. The bathroom was lovely!

A fabulous place for an overnight stay in Alice Springs . Catch the airport transport bus and meet with the most friendly and helpful people you will ever find. The place is impeccably clean and the breakfast is the best. For a short stint in Alice Springs , you can't go wrong staying here.

I chose Kathys place as I wanted something homily. My room was spacious and mattress was firm. No ensuite was part of the deal. Breakfast was provided and was perfectly fine. Kathy and Karl were welcoming and informative. I had a car so it was easy for me to get to Kathys place from the airport and to/from town and around. I had a very comfortable and quite stay, and would stay again

We stayed with Kath and her husband Karl, for 2 nights. Very accommodating and friendly. A unique experience sharing their house with them. Kathy cooks a great breakfast of bacon eggs and mushrooms. Lots of toast and juice and fruit and brewed coffee. Delicious. Off street parking.
