Kiwi Lodge? Never again!
On saturday we were given the keys to a hostel that looked like a methadone clinic. On entering our room we were greeted by complete filth. It wasn't cleaned, the fridge was leaking, and it made us feel physically sick. The receptionist was very apologetic and offered us a refund but then the owners walked in and in no uncertain terms said "too bad. No refund." I have never met such a horrible man in my life. He was rude, abusive, and not the least bit apologetic. In the end the wife agreed to offer us a nights refund, but not before this horrible gentleman screamed "Dont give them a F###ing refund, they're gonna bag us anyway!" I urge everyone out there thinking of visiting Adelaide to stay well clear of Kiwi Lodge -- horrible horrible greedy people. They will take your money and not invest a cent back into their hostel. I've seen homeless shelters in better shape than this place. Their description online couldnt be further from the truth.
