    The Guest House had a quiet and clean atmosphere, with its own air-con. The staff were nice, and there were regular events and free food available. It was conveniently located near the city center, with easy access by walking or bus. The room was clean and spacious, and I appreciated not having to pay a deposit for the key.

    Couldn't stay longer.

    It was very relaxed and friendly, clean with plenty if facilities, though does need a refurb in some parts. Very comfortable and great to chill out in.

    It was a little too quiet sometimes.

    I recently stayed at a budget hotel in Adelaide for a short trip. The hotel had clean rooms with plenty of natural light and a strong shower with instant hot water. The staff were friendly and there were nice common areas to relax in. They also offered different events and free food during the week, creating a lively atmosphere. The location was convenient, with a bus stop to the airport nearby and most places within walking distance. I had a pleasant stay and felt safe in the quiet environment.

    I can recommend this hotel.

    Free breakfast and wifi

    The price that I paid through Booked.net was more expensive than what Backpacker Oz quote if you book through them.

    The free breakfast and wifi.

    The price that I was quoted (and that I paid) was more expensive than what Backpack Oz advertises their rooms for.

    The location of the hotel is ideal, with easy access to the town area and popular tourist attractions. the staff provides excellent service, arranging pick-ups and tours. the facilities offered, such as free bike usage and free WIFI, are great advantages. the clean rooms, toilets, and kitchen create a welcoming atmosphere.

    The lack of privacy while showering is a minor inconvenience for some guests.

    Staying at Backpack Oz felt like having a home in the CBD. The place was cozy and comfortable, and the staff were incredibly nice, accommodating, and helpful. The free breakfast was a big plus, and the spacious kitchen with cooking utensils and a refrigerator made it easy to store and prepare food. The hostel provided plenty of opportunities to socialize with other travelers. Clear instructions on house rules and helpful info boards were provided. The wifi connection was reliable, and the location was excellent, with tourist spots and transportation options within walking distance. Getting there from the airport was also easy by taxi. Our 3-day stay was truly worth every dollar spent. Thank you, Backpack Oz, for a memorable, fun, and hassle-free experience! We will definitely recommend it to friends, whether they're staying for a few days or months.

    Strongly recommend this hotel.

    The staff were unbelievably friendly and helpful, making my stay mind-blowing! The people staying there were equally awesome and the facilities were super clean. The room was jaw-dropping, with shelves and hangers for convenience. I loved being able to cook and store food in the shared kitchen. The free breakfast, including bread, cereal, jams & vegemite, and tea & coffee. The location was super convenient and the staff provided lots of info on things to do. The lounge area was a great place to chill, and the respect for quiet hours was appreciated. an amazing experience in a non-smoking property with free wi-fi, air conditioning, laundry, and a bar/lounge area.
