Vibe Hotel Adelaide

This is such a beautiful hotel!! I have loved it each time we have stayed here. The staff are so welcoming and friendly, they genuinely like to talk to you and find out about your visit, even gives you some ideas if you are looking at what to do. The rooms are clean and well looked after, and the coffee is great!

I recommend this place because it’s very affordable. The room isn’t bad at all—it’s decent for a short or budget stay. They also have a nice pool, and the staff are friendly and helpful. However, the ceiling could definitely use some renovation, as it doesn’t look the best. Also, it’s important to keep noise to a minimum, since other guests may complain, and there’s a risk of being asked to leave if it gets too loud.

Overall, the hotel is nice - not amazing, but I’ve stayed at worse places. Staff are super friendly and helpful, the rooms are modern, included breakfast was delicious. The location is whatever, not the best but you’re within 10-20 mins walking distance from most points of interest within the CBD. This does mean the street is quiet and there’s plenty of street parking (free overnight). The main letdown is in the housekeeping services and room cleanliness. The shower grout was grimy and brown (particularly where the water pooled around the edges), there were long hairs throughout the room (including in the bed - my partner and I both have short hair), and there were dirty tissues under the bed. Throughout the stay, the bathroom toiletries weren’t topped up and the toilet paper wasn’t restocked - we had to request both from reception (reception were super helpful and stocked these up while we were out). One of the days the room was oddly only half refreshed - the towels had been replaced and bins emptied, but the bed was left unmade and dirty cups weren’t changed out. I don’t particularly mind, but it just confirmed to me the lack of care that seems to go into housekeeping at this hotel. There were also only two pillows on the massive king sized bed, which felt weird. There was a third in the cupboard, but in my experience, 2 per person is the standard even for even the most basic of hotels. Would I stay here again? Probably not, but I also wouldn’t discount it if the conditions were right.
