Bed was comfortable, shower was great
Pros:

The location , and friendly guy at the counter

Cons:

It advertised a restaurant but when I got there it wasn’t open due to the season being quiet, they could’ve let people know as I often book with an easy breakfast option etc

Pros:

Good size room, with spa and balcony with optional smokers room/balcony so i didn't have to stand on the street at night.
Very friendly staff

Cons:

There are some stairs, so with a full suitcase it was a bit of a down fall, possibly the offer to get them bought up would help older people

Pros:

The location was excellent, within walking distance for my conference in Nth Adelaide. Also good for parks and restaurants. Bed was comfortable. Staff were friendly. I made use of the pool, spa and sauna.

Cons:

The only drawback was the darkness of my room with no natural light as the window was to an internal walkway. If important to you just request a room with window to outside and staff said they will oblige if they can.
