No windows in the room and 5 beds in 12 square meters. (i'm not sure is legal). The walls are drywall, so you can hear all the noises. No free bus as they say. Not enough space in the refrigerator for everyone. Bicycle rental service, is not offered from the hostel. You have to walk 1 kilometer for get it.... More

This small hostel is ok. Rooms are really small though, no windows, but beds are ok, clean, and I slept really well. The kitchen is ok, even though some new sauce pans would be great as it is simply impossible to do pancakes with the free morning breakfast. Towels in the kitchan and toilets are smeeling so bad - would... More

there are better places in Adelaide to stay! yeah, its ok, but the rooms don't have windows, neither does the kitchen. The TV room was smelly and stuffy. The balcony was good, and a good plpace to start your night out from, especially given it sproximity to the Grace Emily Hotel. Not great for amenities like food etc. Go elsewhere! More

This was not a big hostel and it looked very nice to me. I arrived around 6 in the morning so I wasn't able to check in yet. Because I hadn't slept all night I was very tired and only wanted a place to lay down. Fortunately I was able to lay down in the tv room for a couple... More

No windows in the bedrooms or kitchen. Found it kind of depressing. Ensuite batroom which was nice, friendly people. Location was a fair walk from the centre of town but then I think they all are. Was glad I was only staying a night. More

This is a fantastic hostel and really enjoyed staying here. Be prepared to stay longer than originally intended as everyone seems too! So much fun and staff are really helpful, many a night spent on the balcony drinking with new friends. This place has a really good feel to it and this is the only place to stay once in... More
