Comments of Sunny's Backpackers Hostels Pty Ltd

Great place, the staff were incredibly friendly, helpful and really went above and beyond to help me during my stay. I had booked in for the shared dorm room but on arrival my bed was not ready, I was extremely tiered and just needed a few hours sleep till my bus came. The man at reception quickly told me I could sleep in the private room so I didn’t have to wait ! the hostel is also a 2 minute walk from the bus depo which makes it the perfect place to stay while travelling

Pete, Dave and Rob are very helpful and make sure that you have all you need. By this I mean things like when Pete gave me a swag had been sitting around for a while and I had a huge discount on my tyres when I had to get them changed before my trip. Besides they clean the common areas and bathrooms everyday which always adds points. It's also a quiet hostel, maybe because of the current situation. I also felt very safe and confident I could leave my stuff around and for people with their own car, their parking is free so I would definitely recommend it.

It was my first time staying at backpacker/hostel accommodation.
I came up from a rural area to Adelaide for 1 night for a dentist appointment.
I looked on the internet for accommodation and found they were all $100+ per night. That's what made my mind up to try Sunny's and it wasn't a mistake.
The place is a bit Spartan and that's how I like it. The people there were also extremely nice. It's not really a place to bring children.
Also, I'm told that they still do pancakes in the mornings but only for a special occasion. Because of the Coronavirus there weren't many backpackers there. There was this one guy who would have qualified as being a backpacker, a guy named Jonah from Finland, he was pretty cool.
I would be happy to stay at Sunny's again!

In many ways i remember this as a casual hostel. But the owners of this place make it a lot more then that, they try to help you where they can and make you feel a bit like home. I would always come back to this place!

This place's charm is less in the physical structure, but more those that make them a home. I've got a few examples proving this, but I'll share the most recent. I hadn't been at the hostel in over a month, when a package arrived there for me. A simple e-mail and Pete brought it to the post office and sent it on to me. I offered to cover the postage and he was adement I pay it forward to someone who needs it. Yes it's a hostel, not the Hilton, but I'd argue that Sunny's has better customer service, and definitely more heart.

What an awesome spot. The owners are possibly the nicest I've met. I drove in on a motorbike and one of the owners helped me do a valve adjustment free of charge.
Not only that but the spot is great. Adelaide is cool town if you give it a chance. Come to this hostel if you want to make friends!
H. M.
Yeah, it's not a 'swanky' hostel. But it's not the worst bed I've slept in, it was warm and everything I needed was there. The staff were really friendly and helpful. And for $17 it was brilliant. Pete also took me to the airport at 06:00 for free. What a legend. Would definitely stay here again. Top location, too.
S. G.
I was so pleasantly surprised by the service of this hostel. definitely the best among cheap hostels in Australia. The building itself is an old house, so don’t expect much from the design. But the kitchen was always clean, free pancakes for breaky, super nice staff, quiet comfy vibes, great location. Id recommend it to anyone passing through!
J. H.
Although it's small in size, it has this really home-like atmosphere. The owners are fantastic people and extremely accommodating and really want to get to know their guests, so they can go the extra mile for you. It's the cheapest hostel in Adelaide, yet in my opinion one of the best I've stayed in. Would really recommend if you're looking to stay for work.
S. R.
So, I stayed here about two years ago, but never did write that review. Anyway, like has been said before, this is not the tidiest place around (though I did not have any nasty experiences like bedbugs or so). However, the owners will go to all lengths to ensure their guests are okay. Helping sick people late at night, baking pancakes in the morning, and Pete even rescheduled an appointment to be able to drop us off a few towns away after our stay (since it happened to be en route to where he was going).
r. v.
the location was amazing for someone who wanted to see the night life and the attractions of a growing and in demand state and city. There is so many thanks i would like to give to the lovely staff for the family feel that was offered to me during my stay.
I would highly recommend this backpackers for anyone whom is looking for a great holiday in Australia.
G. S.
Great home like vibe. Friendly managers make you feel welcome. Excellent budget priced accommodation. Stayed here for nearly 6 months. Will be back for sure.

Cheep hostel, but very run down. Beds are very bad and room was pretty cold because the window didn't insulate much. Free Wifi is actually pretty fast compared to so many "quality hostels". Staff is friendly but can be misunderstood easily. Loved the pancakes in the morning! Still place felt kind of boring and even a bit shady at times, which doesn't mean that I didn't meat nice people there.
D. C.
You lost points for: wifi is pretty slow. I don't care that the building is a bit run down but that shouldn't mean an absence of shelves and hooks. Nothing in the room, by the bathroom sink, or showers to help a person out. Beds are spring and old, thin and worn out but if you're tired you'll sleep the whole night through - I've had worse and probably you have too!
Positives to make up for it: friendly, awesome, helpful staff who genuinely want a traveler to have a good experience. Free little breakfast, coffee, tea. It's cheap and the physical stuff you get reflects that, but the staff goes above and beyond the price tag as far as the less tangible things. Overall vibe is pretty friendly. It was kinda empty and winter and still the place managed to overcome the depressing atmosphere most hostels would have. So I give it a B+.
Basics are covered: coin laundry, everything worked, not cold inside in the winter, hot showers, fully equipped kitchen but bring your own oils and spices, regularly cleaned bathrooms. And they have a little bit of parking (reserve it in advance).

I've been here only 1 night.
They've been very nice and helpful: they give you the "day key" so you can move around the city also after the check out without carry with you any heavy backpack and you can still use the facilities (except the room)!
They drive me also to the doctor!
The hostel is not beautiful at all, it need to be renovated..absolutely!
But they are good people!
Good location!
HOSTEL 2 STARS
STAFF 4.5 STARS

Free pancakes in the morning, plus coffee and tea all day. Very friendly, helpful staff. Rooms are clean (depending on who you're rooming with, of course). Nice outdoor area for socialising and a large eating eating. Kitchen was a bit small, but workable if you timed your meals.
E. P.
Hostel is located in the heart of the city. You want it, it’s right there on your door step. Staff are warm and lovely to talk to. Winter is here so it’s a bit quiet but it’s the nicest hostel iv been to so far. Like an old pub with open fire on a cold day sort of feeling.

We arrived in the evening and didn’t make a reservation. Not the best combination... we came with a car and definitely needed a parking lot. There where no hostels with a free place for our car. So after a long time of calling other hostels and walking around, the owner decided to organise a parking lot with moving the others people cars. He was so enthusiastic! He really wanted to make it happen. And in the end it all worked out. I mean we weren’t able to stay in the same room because it was so busy, but at least we had our parking lot and each of us a bed. All we needed!
The owner also recommended restaurants and shops. Even if we already knew where we wanted to eat (there’s a restaurant just around the corner which offers different specials every day! And it tastes fantastic! (I think it’s called the Cumble).
The kitchen of the hostel is small though, so we decided not to cook by ourself. But it wasn’t necessary. In the morning they offered free pancakes with jam and there was enough for everybody! Just amazing!
There are really nice people and they even have a small but nice outside area with a table tennis plate and some space to hang up your laundry. The bathrooms are very clean.
The location is just perfect. Close to the center, close to China town and close to the best market I ever visited so far!

Great hostel, lovely and very helpful staff/owner. Clean, breakfast included, nice people, close to town and all other shops etc. Freezing cold because no heaters and the showers were sometimes cold and sometimes hot.

This please is really close to the city centre, and public transport isnt 2min walk from the front door of Sunnys. Very friendly employees... the owners are friendly to and go out of there way to help with any issue or problem you might have. Room and bathrooms are kept clean constantly and the kitchen is well run.
Couldn't have picked a better backpackers👌

I love the people there! Such a nice community. Good price that includes yammi pancakes, free WiFi and more. Rooms are tidy and bath is okay. Kitchen is also good. You can relax, have a chat with other people, using the sofas or chill outside during a barbecue. There are a lots of shops available. Also coles, wollworths, bottle shops.. Cheap, nice and comfortable !

Lovely staff members, good beds, and free pancakes in the morning! Very close to Adelaide's central bus station if you're arriving by Greyhound etc...
Free Wi-Fi too, which is surprisingly rather quick!

Would have been 5 stars but there where too much of a family vibe and I had too much fun over the 6 month I stayed their.
V. L.
I didn’t actually stay here because they were booked up, but the guys at reception were so nice and helpful, I wanted to write a review. They called about 5 places to see if they had vacancies and helped me get a bed at one of them.
P. L.
Owners and atmosphere is just amazing. I'd love to stay longer here. Yeah, rooms could be improved, but it also has some old school soul. Amazing experience

(Translated) I advise all backpackers who want a warm place to go to Sunny's. It's good roots, but very clean and we love it because people talk to each other, eat together and rules ### have no place (we can bring his own alcohol for example). In addition, the managers are adorable and do not hesitate to give you advice (from the good car to buy through the job to find, until the nice hike). In addition it is not expensive. All good.
(Original)
Je conseille à tous les backpackers qui souhaitent un endroit chaleureux d'aller au Sunny's. C'est bien roots, mais tres propre et on adore car les gens se parlent, mangent ensemble et les règles à la ### n'ont pas leur place (on peut ramener son propre alcool par exemple). De plus, les gérants sont adorables et n'hésitent pas à te donner des conseils (de la bonne voiture à acheter en passant par le boulot à trouver, jusqu'à la rando sympa). En plus c'est pas cher. Tout bénef.
