Irene Hirst
Booked for a week had to leave after one night. Unclean, feels unhygienic. Dark dingy hallways stink of oil and old food. Blankets missing tv broken and after calling for help staff they couldn’t do anything to fix it. Fridge detached from fridge joinery. Bathroom/ laundry stank of sewer smell and humidity. Requested sheets to cover couches so I could feel safe sitting my young children on them. T...

A great place to stay when staying in Adelaide. It is 20 minutes from the CBD by driving and 58 minutes walk. If you're like myself that enjoys the walk to explore the place on the ground it's beautiful. The surrounding environment is also amazing and has shops nearby to buy groceries if you're not looking at eating out. Our room had an oven, microwave, stove, fridge everything you needed. Staff w...

The kitchenette has a coffee maker, stove top and small fridge which h...

Location is good, easy bus/uber r...

Booking and checking in was easy and straightforward. All of our minor additional requests were organised before we arrived and with no fuss. During our stay a couple of simple maintenance issues were attended to promptly. The room had a great outlook across the Adelaide CBD and with 3 of us in the suite there was plenty of space. Undercover parking was a true bonus given the weather and proximity...
