Don't stay here! I am actually from Adelaide and needed a spot close to port Adelaide for the weekend. I have stayed at plenty backpackers in my time and let me tell you, this is not a backpackers. No staff on premises, obviously It was more than likely too dangerous to have someone at the check-in desk, so check-in in is via web call. No travellers to be seen anywhere. this place is for those who unfortunately have nowhere to go or are struggling with a drug addiction of some kind. My door didn't lock properly. I walked in, took a look at the room and basically walked out immediately. no gendered toilet/ shower blocks. terrifying if you are concerned for your safety as a woman and even as a man. Don't waste your money. It's a halfway house not a backpacker's hostel. Port Adelaide is a great place, it's unfortunate that hostel lies about their premises.

The room is smelly and the kitchen is in a mess. I need to check out early in the morning. But there is no instruction/staff there for checking out.

Not a safe place to stay! Avoid if you can!
Try Not to stay here if possible! The accommodation is not safe at all, the doors are always open and anyone can come in or get out, i saw a few people sleeping on the couch, and I’m sure they didn’t have a room, so was a bit scary, everyone can stay here as there is Not a receptionist in this accommodation, they work from home so when u check in you have to press the button and you’ll be talking to someone who is working from home. There are Not tourists here either, most people staying here are residents. The place is not very clean either.

Excellent value for money. I paid a little extra to get a room to myself; if I'd taken a shared room it would have been even more outstanding value for money. I had a car; parking was on-street, but easy to find {although the whole of the location was very quiet}.

A towel should be provided for dorm stayers, not very good at informing where all areas are and what facilities the place offers. Didn't know where I could smoke as well as where I could do laundry or make a tea. No one was around at the time I needed to know these.
