On the positive side, the rooms are generally praised for their spaciousness and cleanliness with several guests highlighting the comfortable beds and ample amenities like fridges and coffee/tea making facilities. The location of the hotel is also repeatedly mentioned as a strong point, being both strategic and convenient.

However, many guests noted that the rooms and the building overall are quite outdated and in need of refurbishment. Issues such as faulty air conditioning, insufficient lighting and worn-out furnishings were commonly reported. The cleanliness of the carpets has also been a concern for some guests, along with minor inconveniences like noisy air conditioning units and limited power outlets.

Despite these drawbacks, some guests appreciated receiving room upgrades and found the accommodations satisfactory for short stays. Simple amenities were described as meeting basic needs and the large size of certain rooms, such as room 404, was acknowledged positively. However, the overall sentiment is that a refresh and modernization of the rooms would significantly enhance guests' experiences.

Phrases like "comfy bed," "bed very comfortable," and "nice and comfortable beds" frequently appeared in positive comments. Some guests went as far as to describe the beds and linens as clean, fresh and perfect for a restful night's sleep.

However, the reviews reveal some inconsistencies. While numerous guests praised the bed comfort, others were less satisfied, citing issues such as sagging mattresses and stiffness. A few complained about the beds being excessively springy or even encountering bed bugs. There were remarks about the bed heads banging against the wall with slightest movement and instances of mattresses feeling like stone or sinking directly to the bed base.

In summary, while a significant number of visitors enjoyed the comfort and cleanliness of the beds at Adelaide Paringa, others experienced issues with bed quality, ranging from sagging and stiffness to hygiene concerns. It appears that the experience of the beds can vary greatly from room to room.

However, the condition of the bathrooms varies with some rooms boasting clean facilities while others show signs of requiring maintenance and thorough cleaning. Frequently mentioned are the old fixtures and general dated appearance of both the rooms and common areas, which do not match the expectations set by online photos.

Several reviews point out specific issues such as dirty carpets, stained spa baths and occasional pest sightings, which suggest inconsistencies in the housekeeping standards. The common areas, such as hallways and elevators, also seem to be in need of more regular cleaning. These aspects have left some guests feeling less than secure and overall disappointed.

Conveniently, there is a Wilson Parking located just across the road, though some visitors opted for free overnight city parking available from 6pm to 9am as an alternative. On the downside, parking is not included in the stay and fees can accumulate quickly with reports of $50 for a 9-hour overnight stay and $75 for three days.
