Highlands Hotel in the center of town is looking a bit worn at the heels but it's the best (or the only) budget option in the area. Backpackers rooms are barebones and share bathrooms but still offer the privacy of a hotel room. Regular rooms aren't much of a step up, but are en suite and have their own television sets. Highlands is also home to one of the few restaurants in town.
