Stayed with my 4 children last week for 2 nights. Property is clean and tidy on the outside and rooms were great too. There was a little bit of a funky smell in the kitchen cupboards but we werent fussed. Window locks on the windows that faced out to the balcony. Hosts were lovely and very polite and welcoming. We have stayed in many motels and found Adelphis wifi the best! There was no lag or connection issues. My kids enjoyed their stay and have asked to return on our next visit. Would definitely recommend a stay here

We stayed in the two bedroom apartment, 2 kids 2 adults. The building looked old from the outside but has been renovated inside, so was very modern and clean. Good size overall. Comfortable beds. Kitchen had a variety of items that we used. Didn’t need the washing machine, but handy if you were staying longer. No dishwasher. Big fridge. Nice bathroom, big shower. Pleasant 1 night stay, would come again.
