Helpful staff member on checking in. Slept well in the bed. Room a bit hot but there was a large fan. Have eaten there before and food is very good.

Room was relatively clean and tidy. However, the refrigeration outside of the room ran all night. No A/C in room and it was rather warm overnight. As a result, we had a terrible night's sleep. I know it's an old building, but it is 2026. Also, no tea, coffee or even a bottle of water in the fridge. Somewhat disappointing..

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, rooms comfortable. A bit warm in high summer with a fan but no aircon, but hey, it's Adelaide in summer.
Could hardly be closer to the Tour Down Under event village - I'll be back next year

Good food. Old daggy accommodation but that doesn't bother us. Fantastic location but being a pub very loud music (if you like to sleep early for bike riding) Very reasonably priced convenient to heart of city. Staff were awesome. Fridge only in room and portable fan. No tea/coffee making facilities.
A good stay and a great steak😋😋😋
The staff were lovely

Good location but no parking. Rooms were pretty good but clearly not cleaned with debris under beds, dead bugs around, and lots of dust. Basic accommodation but convenient.
Stayed here for two nights. The staff were super accommodating and very kind. The amenities were clean, and the location was superb as it was well within reach of several landmarks. Overall, a very pleasant stay.
The Standard Balcony Queen Room we booked was 20 sqm, a good size for my husband and I. The super high ceilings made the room cooler than average. That's a plus point in summer but probably the room might feel colder than average in winter.
PROS:
Super clean floors, bathrooms/shower rooms;
super clean comfy bed, white sheets and pillows;
hand soap;
paper towels provided in the shared toilets
in-room a small desk and two other bedside tables;
a fridge for our food/veg purchases;
convenient location:
Central Market just opposite the hotel
Railway station just a 10 mins walk from the hotel;
The J1 Bus stop to/ from airport just 10-15 mins walk.
Several asian grocery supermarkets nearby.
Wonderful helpful staff like Megan.
CONS
no air conditioning (though there was a ceilling fan which is good use if the temperature is below 32 C);
a portable oil heater (but it might take a while to heat up the room in winter)
2 flights of stairs to climb to rooms (a challenge if you have heavy large luggage bags);
No jug in the room for boiling tap water (but Megan was so kind to get a jug and two cups for us to use).
We had a good one-night stay!

Great location in the Adelaide CBD - very central! The space had the basic necessities, nothing too fancy. Great for a one night stay.
Staff were friendly, location great, rooms could be cleaner. Very old building, terrace not as advertised, toilet less accessible. Should be advertised as a hostel rather than hotel. Price was good.
