Very good at half the price

Comfortable beds, very clean and the few staff were friendly and helpful when they were there. But the reception opens late and closes early, breakfast is only available until 8.30am and the pool closes at 7pm (and the spa button didn't work). In the room, we didn't need to use the air conditioning until the last night as we were out all the others. When we tried, we found it broken with nobody on reception to ask to deal with the problem. Water pressure (as is common these days) in the shower could have been better. WiFI patchy to non existent at times. Would have been a really good place to stay at a more affordabe rate though as the location is extremely good and, as I said, the staff were extremely friendly and as helpful as they could be.

Dated property with several issues in the room, skirting board coming away from wall, dirt and balls of fluff throughout the room, exhaust fan not working in the bathroom . The dark brown timber work makes the facility look dirtier than it is. Garden area well maintained and staff cheerful

Great location

Nice big room, free parking out the front. Fabulous location-walking distance to the zoo, Adelaide oval etc. Downside is there is no lift and we were on the second floor with a baby so had to carry our luggage and the pram etc up and down the stairs which wasn't ideal.
