Most remote sites use portable accomodation, so even the 'good' rooms for staff with ensuite are still pretty small if your not used to them (unless your senior management).

Previous sites I've been at I've been able to connect phone (pay costs myself) to my room, but the more remote you get, the less phone lines available out from the site, so chances are less. Current site has only about 50 outgoing lines, so no phones in rooms except for exceptional circumstances. Teltra mobilenet works here so just use mobile for calls, internet room or work for net. They are looking at camp wide wireless broadband which would be great. We have sat link foxtel I think. Not too sure about Murrin, each site is different.
