Amilla

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is right in the middle of Adelaide a lot to do nearby. However, my room was so dusty it made my nose run like a facet. Also, the beds were incredibly uncomfortable and not suitable for adults. The bunk beds are very unstable and felt as if they would rip over when you climbed them. Breakfast $14 for toast and cereal. Felt more like a low quality dorm than a professional accommodation.
