Good for overnight

Great location. Not very easy to check in after hours. Don’t bother using the elevator if you don’t have plenty of time to spare. Bedroom has no air flow as a/c is down the other end of a long thin unit, in the lounge, and it faces the other way.

Spacious apartment,with a full kitchen and very big fridge freezer,ok bathroom with the bonus of having a washing machine and tumble dryer to use for free.Aircon in lounge worked well none in bedroom which meant leaving door open of a nighttime to remain at decent temperature,we had a day of 42 degrees and was still ok Could do with updating entry system so you have a card rather than a big key and key ring to carry around

Centrally located apartment-hotel to explore Adelaide. Able to walk anywhere within CBD, or not far to walk to catch free tram. Close to Market Hall. Basic/functional room with kitchenette inc washer/dryer, lounge area & separate bedroom (with no window). Room smelt unpleasant/stale throughout stay, and some of utensils/crockery were unclean. Only one lift to service all rooms, thankfully as we were on 1st floor we were able to use stairs rather than waiting. Parking was included as part of VIP Access, not a big carpark, but managed to get a space each day. You get what you pay for. For a central city location with amenities, it suited our needs & budget.

Good location

Great location! Easy access by car and on foot. Close to the markets and a lot of restuarants, right in the city. What they don't tall you is how to check in - you need to park on the street outside and the car park entrance needs a remote to open the door. The entrance is located BACK up the one way street. Staff are functional and no frills, few smiles. Rooms are big and well appointed as a basic flat - would be enough to stay for a long stay if needed (and if you could afford it :P) Recommended for location and space to move about. Decent lounge room and kitchen with a proper laundry.

Although the room was a bit tired, it was so close to everything, it was amazing! Price was fair for proximity to everything. I managed to walk most places, including the market, the botanical gardens, of course Rundell mall, the square, Hindle road. All great spots to visit. Glenelg was only a short bus ride away and I was in time to see the Xmas parade at Port Adelaide on another day. The utensils were a bit basic but still managed to cook some meals easily enough. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Recommend these apartments.
