"**WARNING: DO NOT STAY HERE**. This place is a complete scam. The room was NOTHING like the photos online. Starting from the moment you enter the foyer and are greeted with the smell, a mixture of old take away and rubbish, the manager a disheveled unkempt individual with less hospitality skills than that of a 30’s hospital matron, who explains to us that the room we booked was not what was available due to cleaning that day and the dampness associated, who then informs us “if you don’t like the room we have for you we can always move you tomorrow”. We are then greeted by furniture and bedding, covering the fire extinguishers in the hallway with the smell of damp throughout and dirty laundry piled in a corner. We move into our “apartment to find 5 beds throughout the two rooms and the only bathroom within the bedroom of the apartment, without any windows. The other room housing one bed and two fold outs with no blankets or doonas, lighting not working, windows in the main room that don’t open nor the blinds, so you’re in darkness throughout the day. Make a cup of coffee? nope! No cups, plates, cutlery etc, no coffee/tea etc, no tea towels/cloths to clean and mould and damaged internals of the cupboards. Uncomfortable beds and don’t get me started on the bathroom. All up we were booked in for 4 nights and left the next morning. Do yourself a favour, STAY AWAY and enjoy your trip instead of having to find alternative accommodation at last minute. STILL AWAITING A REFUND!

Very outdated, not at all like the photos. Spruiked as a two bedroom apartment, actually only one bedroom with three other beds set up in the living room. Two of the beds were not even real beds - folding beds - and they did not have blankets, just sheets! We arrived late at night and it was 12degC. My kids were freezing and I had to use bath towels as extra bedding for them. The single box A/C heater was grossly undersized for the room and barely took the chill off. The kitchen had no coffee or tea (yet there was milk in the tiny fridge?!) and there were only a couple of glasses - we were a group of 5. There was a sponge, but no detergent and no tea-towel. So no way to adequately wash any dishes. Two chairs at the kitchen table (for 5 people). Shelf directly over the toilet so that you banged your head getting off. No vanity - just random bits of wood screwed together with some kind of foam stuck to it that had *almost* been removed (unsuccessfully). We had croissants for brekky from the bakery over the road - no way to sweep up our crumbs because there was no broom or dustpan provided. One good thing was the little bedside lights over the main bed (best thing in the place). Location excellent - in a very cute laneway with lots of cafes / food places around. NO PARKING - not even a drive through bay where you could pull in to dump suitcases (although this is beyond the control of Cosmo - more of an Adelaide City issue). There were several paid parking lots nearby though.

The hotel is close to shops, transport and places to eat which was very convenient. Price to stay was cheap and staff provided us with a fob for late access after we asked for one. The hotel supplied no toilet paper or tea and coffee, we had to buy our own, even after staff assured us some would be supplied. It was hard to sleep with the noise of 3 bars and people shouting, and even fighting, in the street until 3am every night. Then the street sweeper goes through at 5am and there was no noise reduction at all. Facilities were basic and the bathroom fan didn't work. The shower screen showed visible mold and the chairs were stained.

The Cosmo on Bank lives up to its reputation, the location is second to none. We stayed for a cricket trip and I would recommend this place to any group who wants a cheap place to rest their head for 3 hours a day. The room we had was actually clean compared to some Google reviews. Our room had no toilet paper but with one simple request to the helpful man at the front desk there was 2 rolls waiting for us when we got back from a night out

Would not recommend this property to anyone. Noise was ridiculous, room was not tidy, the curtains didn’t even cover about 2 feet worth of window so I was exposed to the street, fan was noisy in bathroom, parts of the tiled floor were lifting and an old banana was under it. The fridge was dinted all over the front and when opened was full of rust! Walls were patched where holes had been and hadn’t been repainted. A bed light had been ripped off the wall and not replaced, light above bed also didn’t work! Overall, worst hotel I have stayed in my entire life. Will not be going back! And would advise EVERYONE to AVOID!

The location is excellent, with public transportation right at the doorstep and proximity to everything. However, the listing as an 'apartment' might be misleading. While the beds were clean, the refrigerator was completely iced over, no cooking facilities and basic cutlery was missing. Additionally, the apartment had noticeable stains on the walls and floors, and the windows were obscured and filthy. Receptionist was kind and helpful.

King bed and single bed room
The hotel is placed in a very useful location and the service was good. However the cleanliness and overall state of the room was terrible. King bed was torn and mattress springs sticking out. Bed sheets not clean and I suspected bed bugs after waking up with bites. Our key did not have a tag to get in after hours and would have to buzz an intercom to get in.

I grabbed my key after hours and someone was in my room. Was transferred to another room however the room was old and damaged. The bathroom looked like a public restroom. There was no lock from the inside so I felt completely unsafe as a single female. The only lock was a handle lock. The staff understood and offered me a refund thankfully.
