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.
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.

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.

Very convenient place to stay, staff were good although we interacted only at check in.
We were aged 69 and 64 and were given 2 bunk beds and 1 single bed which was okay, but the single bed was no good, the springs were gone and you literally sink into the bed.
The staff were friendly and helpful. The amenities were clean.
The carpet in the room was grotty and stained. There was noise at night from a nearby metal band, but it didn't go too late.

The room was clean and tidy and the location was very good. Only negative was the noise level. The bars don't close until late on Friday and Saturday so noise from the patrons, particularly in the area on the street was very annoying as it went on until the early hours of the morning..
Basic but clean, comfortable and convenient. I had a late arrival and an early departure but was met by the friendliest night porter I’ve ever met. Thank you
Rooms were clean and quiet considering the construction nearby.
Shower and toilet facilities were clean and despite the block arrangement was reasonably private.
Location was good - short walk from most points of interest.
Staff were amazing, welcoming and friendly, Hotel was just as described, old style pub accommodation, basic rooms are comfortable and clean, the building itself is a bit beat up in places but that adds to the charm. it was a great place to stay. construction site across the road was a bit noisy
If you want cheap and cheerful hotel accommodation this is a great option, Staff were very friendly. Room was basic but comfortable and shared toilets and showers were clean. I thought great value for money.
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!
