Spa, sauna, pool and location worth it - maybe.
Pros:

Location was fantastic. Staff were always friendly and very helpful. Although at check in I got the impression booking.com was very difficult to deal with. The spa, sauna and pool were magnificent.

Cons:

The shower was the absolute worst. Hot water took 4 full minutes to appear and that was at a trickle. Even with no cold turned on it wasn’t hot and there was barely enough to wash and rinse my hair. The room looked had one window that looked out to an alley where the cleaner’s facility rooms were. It was like a dark cave all of the time. The tv was tiny. The beds a bit lumpy.

Very convenient
Pros:

Fnatastic location on O'Connel street. North Adelaide
Room was spacious. The water was very hot.
Quiet room.

Cons:

The pillows were awful
The young man at the front desk had a bit of attitude. but the other gentleman was lovely and made up for the lack of
customer service from the other young upstart.

Great location, but otherwise disappointing.
Pros:

Great location, close to everything with tons of food options nearby.

Cons:

The bed was horrifically uncomfortable, could feel the springs digging into my back, felt like sleeping on a slab of wood with sharp poking bits digging into your back and sides. The room also wasn’t the cleanest, one of our towels had a weird mark on it… oh, and you could hear EVERYTHING from the neighbouring room, literally everything. Conversations, the toilet flushing, other THINGS. Considering we paid extra for our room than the standard price we were incredibly disappointed in the level of comfort, cleanliness, and the level of noise.

Nice and clean but not really pet friendly
Pros:

It was clean

Cons:

It advertised as pet friendly but when we got there it wasn’t and so we had to leave our dogs in the car in their crates instead of the room in their crates after 16 hours of driving. We didn’t love that.

Etwas in die Jahre gekommenes Hotel in perfekter Lage!
Pros:

Das Adelaide Inn liegt in Nothern Adelaide perfekt, um die Stadt zu erkunden. In der direkten Umgebung gibt es Restaurants und Bäckereien sowie eine Bushaltestelle, die direkt in die City führt. Das Frühstück sowie den Pool haben wir nicht genutzt, so dass wir dazu nichts sagen können.

Cons:

Die Einrichtung des Zimmers war etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber grundsätzlich sauber und in Ordnung.
