Girls week in Adelaide

We spent 5 nights at Saltbush. Great location, handy to some nice pubs with good food in walking distance. Close to public transport. Our only criticism is the property could have been a bit cleaner and there are a few things that need some maintenance but the layout was good and Norwood is a good area.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Accessing the property was easy. Lots of room. Table tennis table was a bonus! Was disappointed to find the ceiling in the master bedroom had a large mouldy section, the oven was dirty and generally not all that clean. Would use this rental regularly when we visit Adelaide if the these issues were addressed.
