The Shakespeare Hotel used to be the place to stay in Barcaldine - about
1950's.

Don't expect too much in "Barky" and you won't be disappointed.

I'll be going to Barcaldine and Longreach soon, but I'm not quite sure
about the accommodations. A friend of mine recommended Barcaldine as I
wanted to see more of the outback and non-touristy Australia, and
knows someone owning a pub there with the option to stay there as
well, but I'm not sure about the price.

I think he spoke of something around AU$ 60 a night, which is quite
expensive for me (I've been staying at dorms all the way in this
country, paying around AU$ 20 a night) -are there cheap places to stay
at those two places (Longreach and Barcaldine)?
I've searched the net but found nothing, but then again not everybody
has a website or information about their place....
