Comments: A great place. The guesthouse section across the road is definitely worth the extra money if you're not so worried about socialising but want privacy!

Comments: Lovely hostel and the manager was great on reception. i stayed in winter and it was really cold as I\'m not sure if there was any heating or if it didn\'t work, but anyway, its a lovely, clean, safe place. Rooms were big and have handy storage areas and lockers. Kitchen was spotless and free tea and coffee all days helps.

Comments: Great hostel, right near the city centre. Our single room was big, comfy bed, fan. Nice TV/dining/kitchen area. Everything was great. The staff was nice and the free shuttle to the station to catch the Ghan was very convenient. Just a great hostel all around. No complaints :D Adelaide rocks, check out the Central Market!

Comments: Really enjoyed staying at this hostel, close to the tram and buses. Good to have breakfast included. Only thing I thought there might have been was a few more events. Hardly anyone spoke to each other unless your in the rrom. But overall it was worth the money

Comments: A sound hostel. The free Breakfast was well set up and better than some of the cheap loaf of bread and pots of cheap brand jams you get at some hostels. Nice atmosphere and clean and tidy.

Comments: We had a ball here, great to come back after a hard day\'s shopping at the markets and beaching to sit back and have a few with a friendly crew. Though, we would love to see you serve the local brew. If we wanted a VB, we would of stayed longer in Melbourne! Cheers

Comments: lockers in general and especially plugs in the rooms (!) to charge your camera with would be nice. and locking the reception for 40 min when someone wants to get their baggage to catch the airport shuttle wasn't the greatest idea. i missed the shuttle but luckily made the plane using public transportation. otherwise a nice atmosphere.

Comments: We stayed in The Guesthouse and can really recommend it. Especially for couples. More quiet than the Backpack Oz and just over the street. Breakfast is INCLUDED in both, Backpack Oz and The Guesthouse. You can feel, that it is family owned and managed by the owners. GREAT PLACE!
