We stayed here for 8 nights in April 2013. The apartment is spacious enough but not well finished or furnished. We rented a 2 bedroom apartment and had to take turns on the lounge as it was a 2 seater, and despite complaining nothing was done and no one contacted us. There is only a single television so we couldn't... More

We booked the apartment because it was very well situated for the city and central Adelaide. It is very good value for money but a little cheap in decor etc. Beds need wheels removing as they roll uncontrollably across the wooden floors. One frustration is that the office hardly ever seemed to be open. I would however recommend and would... More

Filthy apartment. Broken furniture, leaking shower, poor service. Very bad value for the price. Only positive point is the location. Great restaurants and market close by. Nice part of the city and very easy to find places.

We stayed at this apartment for a week in May. The location is excellent as the building is located in a quiet side street and right in the middle of the City with the Central Market and China Town nearby. Thus, there are plenty of cafe, restaurants and bars nearby. It 's also within walking distance to the main shopping... More

Best thing about this accomodation was the location, close to Glenelg tram, CBD and Gouger St but lots or other things were not good such as : no toilet roll holder or towel rail in the bathroom, very limited clothes hanging space with only a small hanging rack provided, shared between the 2 bedrooms, the queen sized bed was jammed...

The best thing about this place was the location - about a 1 minute walk to the Central Market (which is a must visit in Adelaide), bars and nightlife (it's Adelaide, so it's still pretty quiet), and Chinatown for good restaurants. Parking was free in a parking station about a 5 minute walk away. Street parking is pretty easy to... More
