Was there with a carer for recovering from dental surgery at Harley vale day hospital referred by north Adelaide dental
Pros:

Sorry, the sedative I had makes me forget numerous events but,Good location walk to hospital day care, booked 2 rooms across from each other and given spare key for carer, nice rooms, warm, nice bed with plenty of pillows and bedding, went straight to bed when got there and carer woke me next day so didn’t see what amenities were available very clean, noise level okay give on busy road (I was pretty much out of it) there was some water bottles there the male concierge was very friendly and helpful to my career including advising eateries close by, as I went straight to bed
One thing that miffed me was the $20 reserved parking fee, there was only two cars where my allotted space was I.e. say 20 empty spaces

Great location, even better staff
Pros:

I had a fantastic experience at this hotel for a quick 1 night stay for myself. The highlight was the friendly and helpful staff that were extremely accommodating with making my stay smoother. Big shout out to Chloe at the front desk who was super friendly and made my arrival and check in a memorable experience.

Everything I needed was close by and the options for dinner and breakfast in the morning was a short walk from the front door. Will be back for sure.

Pros:

Great location

Cons:

We were lucky enough to get a car park in the parks out the front, but before we got there they sent a text saying all the car parks had been allocated and that we’d have to park out on the street.
