Lovely Place to Stay

The apartments are in a great location for all downtown stores, bars and restaurants. We did a lot of our own cooking there and we really appreciated having the Central Market only 5 min away. We had a problem with the clothes dryer and the management responded quickly to replace it with a working model.

Good but not Great

The stay was average - some little annoying things got in the way. Nice central location near the fresh food market [nice stop] and China Town. Close walk to Rundle Mall and North Terrace street - lets of shops, museums and restaurants in those areas. Air Con had to be full on or off - thermostat did not work properly. Drying towels were filthy (not merely stained) and no soap pucks for dishwasher.

Great location, beautiful apartment

We had a 2 bedroom apartment with a full kitchen and laundry facilities. Apt was nicely furnished. Much more than we had expected and couldn't have asked for more. Would highly recommend the hotel. The staff was very helpful. Nicest accommodation that we had on our Australian vacation. Would stay there again any time.

Fantastic central city location

Lovely apartment very well placed for everything in the city. Buses and tram a short walk. Airport bus 100m away. Totally no need for a car. Central market just one block, and dozens of cheap restaurants available round that area. Internet, as is common across Australia, is expensive and wifi connector didn't work for us .... but a hard wire connection worked fine. Love this city - a great juxtaposition of old historic and new modern. Also very clean! Great place for a break away or longer vacation.

Good for overnight

Great location. Not very easy to check in after hours. Don’t bother using the elevator if you don’t have plenty of time to spare. Bedroom has no air flow as a/c is down the other end of a long thin unit, in the lounge, and it faces the other way.

Spacious apartment,with a full kitchen and very big fridge freezer,ok bathroom with the bonus of having a washing machine and tumble dryer to use for free.Aircon in lounge worked well none in bedroom which meant leaving door open of a nighttime to remain at decent temperature,we had a day of 42 degrees and was still ok Could do with updating entry system so you have a card rather than a big key and key ring to carry around

Centrally located apartment-hotel to explore Adelaide. Able to walk anywhere within CBD, or not far to walk to catch free tram. Close to Market Hall. Basic/functional room with kitchenette inc washer/dryer, lounge area & separate bedroom (with no window). Room smelt unpleasant/stale throughout stay, and some of utensils/crockery were unclean. Only one lift to service all rooms, thankfully as we were on 1st floor we were able to use stairs rather than waiting. Parking was included as part of VIP Access, not a big carpark, but managed to get a space each day. You get what you pay for. For a central city location with amenities, it suited our needs & budget.
