My stay at this boutique hotel was truly phenomenal. I was welcomed warmly, and the atmosphere made me feel at home right away. The food at the pub was beyond my expectations, and having a comfortable, clean room made my experience even better. While the lack of a lift might be inconvenient for some, the staff's willingness to help with my bags really made up for it. It's a great place if you're looking for a cozy and unique experience in the city.

I had a wonderful experience at this boutique hotel in central Adelaide. The accommodations were clean and comfortable, with top-notch amenities. The staff were incredibly welcoming and made my stay very pleasant. The only minor downside was a bit of noise from the pub downstairs on Saturday night, but it didn't overshadow the great experience overall.

I had a fantastic stay at this boutique hotel located just across from the bus station, making it incredibly convenient after my travels. The rooms were spacious, beautifully decorated, and included thoughtful amenities like complimentary drinks. The service from the staff was exceptional, truly making me feel welcome. However, the area surrounding the hotel felt a bit rundown, and while I enjoyed my stay, I think they could improve a bit on the noise levels from the bar below at times.

I had a fantastic stay in a spacious room decorated beautifully. It was surprisingly quiet given that it's above a pub, which made for a comfortable night's sleep. The location is prime, just a short walk to restaurants and markets. I truly enjoyed my experience, but it would have been even better if the bathroom had a bit more privacy and storage space for my belongings.
