Liked: 5 mins walk to the beach and 2 mins walk to all the shops, bars and the tram to Adelaide city centre.

Disliked: Hostel is on a busy road so if you are in a dorm on the front it is VERY noisy, the main bus stop is right outside and buses stand there for ages with their engines running especially early in the morning. Also, the bar downstairs plays ridiculously loud music all afternoon and night at the weekend, our dorm was shaking and the beds and windows vibrating. There aren't enough toilets and showers for the number of dorms, we often had to queue.

Liked: Not very much. It was close to the beach and shops. All the facilities associated with the nightclub seemed to matter more than the hostels. The gentleman who checked us in was very pleasent and helpful however the same cannot be said for the young girl who was there in the morning who was too hungover to help.
