BUG Review
Annie’s Place is a charming 140-year-old building with tall ceilings and lots of character. The entrance is impressive with warm colours and a huge chandelier in the hallway gives the hostel a bit of charisma. There are plenty of other kitschy odds and sods around the hostel such as the sculpture in the courtyard and even a porn room (a double room room with the walls tastefully covered in nude photos). The eclectic décor works surprisingly well making Annie’s Place stand apart from other more sterile hostels. It has the usual facilities such as a good kitchen, laundry and barbecue area but there is no TV lounge as there are televisions in all the rooms instead, which detracts from the otherwise excellent atmosphere.

it's claimed that the owner prefers not to have aussies staying here. but from my experience, if you are genuine and sincere in your approach, you should not have any issues.

A nice place to stay in an old building full of atmosphere. It's ran by this ace woman called Flick. She was great and everynight we had dinner and sat around and chewed the fat in the courtyard. Stay here if you visit Adelaide.

) The staff can book your onward travels and have good local advice. The lack of a warm indoor common area is a bit of a draw back althought the rooms have plenty of space so you can sit in there a bit and get to meet your room mates and theres also tvs in the rooms.Definately reccomend
