Terrible room

The staff were all great, so this rating is not a reflection on their work. The room wasn't very clean - the showers were not clean, the carpets and blinds are old and stained. We stayed for 7 days but was only given supplies for 1 day even though there was no housekeeping. The room stank of smoke that came through the vents or drains into our room daily (we are not smokers and had all the windows and doors closed), the dishwasher was old and were broken in bits.

Property needs to be re-furbished. Booked a 2-bedroom sky view apartment. Problems with - Check-in (room access granted after 2.00pm only) Lift access to our floor. Lack of pool towels Damaged items within the room. Unclean (plates, cutlery) Entire property / room needed a deep clean Surrounding area felt unsafe. Would not recommend or stay again.

Not as pictured

For the price, was not impressed. Obviously hiked for Gather Round. Tears in carpet, carpet spikes coming through where carpet met tiles cutting our feet. No housekeeping even though there 5 nights, could get it for extra cost. No towels at pool, had to use room towels. Not enough supplies of toilet paper, dishwashing liquid, laundry powder for 5 nights. The one positive, very accommodating for an 11am check out.

Pool, spa and sauna great, balconies can be weather proofed and quality furnishings. Very comfortable beds and excellent shower pressure. Ideally a decent sized fridge would be an improvement in some rooms, and nice if the pool closed a little later than 8pm on Friday through Sunday. Otherwise a great place to stay.

Had lovely views, air con did not work in bedroom, beds were extremely uncomfortable and the shower had no pressure and was barely warm. If I am spending my money on a place to stay I expect the basics to be in working order and the bed to not be as hard as a rock, woke up every morning in pain. 1.5 stars sorry, wouldn’t stay there again.

Adelaide Apartment stay

Apartment was spacious and offered everything we needed. Close to supermarket (open until 10pm). Park close too, for children to play. A little noisy (other residents leaving for work). A couple of blocks from King William St and tram stop. Excellent public transport in Adelaide

Great location but tired

Great location, 7 minutes walk to Central Market and 20 minutes to Rundle Mall. We had a one bedroom apartment which was very comfortable and well sized. Fully equipped with washing machine and dishwasher. Bedding and towels were clean but carpets and sofa/cushions were dubious. These are in urgent need of a refurb! One air conditioning for whole apartment located in sitting room meant that bedroom was not properly cooled in the week we were there - 38C days and 26C night. Loud throbbing ‘music’ until 3am every night over weekend meant that sleep was elusive and it reverberated all the way up to the 13th floor! Overall, great location, comfortable apartment.
