I arrived only to find that not only are the conditions terrable but they are racist and very unhelpful and unsympathetic and couldnt care less if you had to sleep on the street. I would never recommend any1 to stay there ever. There are plenty of other decent places to stay around adalaide

Rooms quite cramped but fairly priced, cheap alcohol available at reception

Very run down hostel... Rude staff, rooms are over crowded and showers are not working properly, yet they charge you $30 for a night. Laundry is overpriced and there is no way to dry your clothes unless you want to spend a fortune on using the dryer which isn't great for all types of clothes either. Would not recommend anyone to stay here.

Service is pretty good. They told us where to park for free for the whole stay and the tram is for free as well (from and to certain stops).
Rooms very basic and our room smelled weird. Blanket and stuff were clean. Rooms got AC and very few powerplugs. 27$ per night in a 10 bed dorm (too much if you ask me.).
Huge community room with books, many couches and tables, TV and Wifi, which was very very slow though. Very calm and quit atmosphere in the week, don't know about the weekends. The other guests are very friendly and helpful too.
Kitchen was pretty good and clean, but the amount of space in the fridge was little.
Toilets have been cleaned every day, but some of the other guests couldn't clean up after themselves which was disgusting.
The location was pretty good and central, but the parking situation is terrible (well, it's central Adelaide). It's easier to stay there without having a car.

We got a good deal on this room. It's basic, as you'd expect. There are several charging ports and a desk. The whole feel of the accommodation is quite eerie, as if it was used for a hospital in the past. The location is central, and a few streets away to the seemingly main street with pubs, clubs etc. Downstairs there is a tuck shop which is useful when you don't want to go out to a shop, the prices are not bad (I paid $2.80 for a can of Sanpellegrino). The guy at the front desk was very nice and answered questions we had about the area.
