Worst Taxi service in SA!!! I use taxis all the time and have never experience a poor service like this. I was so bad I decided not to take the Taxi. If you in the Hill use Mt Baker taxis. Hence stay away from hill taxis. read more

A few were polite and friendly, but others over promised on pick up times (left us waiting an extra 30 minutes in the dark and cold, only to be told he was late because he had been flagged by someone else), or were condescending in tone ("it's the small gold coin...yes I know, I've lived here 5 years thanks")

The drivers are normally friendly…read moreor overly-talkative and pleasant and the taxis are always clean and do not smell like someone has just done a 1 hour SPIN class in them. My biggest qualm though... Worst. iPhone app. Ever. It would appear that every time I am in a hurry to order a taxi the Suburban Taxi iPhone app either freezes or fails to search for a taxi. I have had 2 occasions where I have pre-ordered a cab (the night before) and a cab still has not been booked by the next morning. Why don't you just call them then Chloe? Because we live in the digital age and I shouldn't have to is why! Stubborn and very Gen Y of me? Yes. But when you can catch a cab from 4 different companies in Adelaide you need to differentiate to truly be great and this is one thing that now turns me off using Suburban if I need to get to the airport or an event.

Particularly important during busy times. Because they often drive from the city to get you, they're reluctant to come if there's a high chance you'll be picked up by another cab first. Even if you're waiting inside, you're better off telling them a quieter street. And if you've got an iPhone, get the app. With it you can skip the phone queue and tap directly into their booking system. Enter either an address or push 'iHail' (will send a cab to your location) and track the taxi as it approaches. Ahhh, technology.

Eventually another person at the vets offered me a lift once her consult was over. She did her consult, took me home and I STILL had to ring them to cancel the taxi FROM MY HOME WHERE I WAS NEEDING TO GO! The taxi's rank up only 2 minutes away from where I was so it's not like there wasn't a cab nearby! Short fares are still a friggin fare, it's still $12+ in their pocket. So over this attitude, I have cancer and my leg was broken by it, I can't walk even short distances. On top of that I SHOULDN'T have to explain myself to get a ride that I'm paying for no matter what the distance! I will not bother to book with them if there drivers are so picky to leave people standing around waiting like this. Totally appalling!

Had "no pickups" multiple times where they apparently just don't bother going into the car park. I'm only using taxis because my work provides me with cab charges, I'm urging them to give me uber vouchers instead. Do these taxis really not understand why uber is taking so much of their business??

Returning a rental car can often be a pain and involve long waiting times or confusion as to where…read moreto park your car. Well, not here. I must say I was impressed with the convenience of this place, especially since it's right in the city on North Terrace. When driving past, you just follow the signs that lead you to a car park around the corner where you leave your car. There was heaps of space so no issues there. You then take the elevator down into the building where their office is located and service was so quick that we were in and out in less than a minute. Perfect!
I rented a car for 2 days the previous week. Great service and price…read more So I went back. For one day, Avis charged me more than the 2 days last week. Same car. It was way above what was quoted to me last week for this one day. Wouldn't budge when I pointed it out. Promised the kids a road trip that day and had no time to shop around. At some point, human decency has to be the priority instead of overcharging a customer.

With the 721F/722F passing through every 15 minutes, the ride to the city is quite quick with no pick up from stop 26 until Anzac highway, allowing for speedy travel down Main South Road after the medical center. Generally though, I prefer the T722 that goes down the southern expressway and passes through Woodcroft Town Centre, as it has even fewer timed stops, however when you are trying to get into the city in the morning, the 721X is a great choice, as is the T721 as they are both quite quick and utilise the Southern Expressway.

But tonight my feet are sore from the wrong shoes, and I've got the post Chinese dinner coma coming on, oh and my train leaves in 12 mins and I don't feel like running, or waiting an hour for the next train Enter Eco Caddy. The friend I'm with swears by them, so I think, what the heck, let's give it a go. I download the ECOHail app, tell it where I am, and where I want to go. It tells me Jack is 2 mins away. 30 seconds later my chariot arrives. I hop on and away we go... Now here's where Eco caddy has something over their taxi car counterpart - it's a bike, so they can go places a car can't, take a side street or a paved shopping mall for instance - making the trip a little more interesting than in a cab. Also, no talkback radio or terrible terrible smell (so long as jacks rexona holds up) we have a bit of a chat, and then turn a corner and we're at the station, and yes, I made my train.

I took the tram from the stop opposite Post Office / Casino, to the end of the line at Glenelg. The trip was visually enjoyable with interesting views of the suburbs, and ending up with a spectacular view of the ocean at the seaside town of Glenelg. The final stop takes you right to the seafront with the beach, pier and lots of cafes, restaurants, and gift shops to enjoy.
The one time I'll tell you not to walk in Adelaide is when I'm telling you to catch the tram…read more The tram is an icon of Adelaide that has ironically been fitted out with brand spanking new lines and carriages (don't get an Adelaidian started on that little quandary). These things are now air conditioned, have free wi-fi, an automated metro card and pay machine system and run more regularly than the bus system (again don't get me started). My one issue is if you have a friend who gets car sick they're probably not going to enjoy the journey. The trams are now wrapped in all sorts of advertising that means although they are beautiful on the outside, you cannot see a damn thing looking from the inside out. For $3 a ticket one way to Glenelg (and return if you come back within 2 hours) this is a fine method of transport to Adelaide's south-ish suburbs.

The renovations look great and even the female bathroom was lovely and spacious and lots of mirrors... The food was good and nice size servings. As a starter we had the mustard seed and parmesan bread and that was delish... I had the crab pasta for the main which was a little different to the usual ones I've had. It was in a diablo sauce which I have never tried before and had a strong chilli flavour which I don't mind a bit of but that was a little over powering. My friend had the steak which was served on mash but she said she felt like it needed a green veggie in there but I think that us something you can order as a side dish. She had asked for it to be cooked medium but I think it came out more med-well done. Overall a nice restaurant food wise but they did take a long time to clear our plates away after we had finished and a few little things I asked for like a wedge if lemon, never made it to our table then we had asked to see the dessert menu and they had forgotten so had to ask again. Attention to detail please... It's another restaurant in the entertainment book so great value.

In the end, we decided to come here because it was walking distance from the restaurant ... but we certainly didn't expect it to be as good as it was! It's on the budget end of the spectrum - our room with a king-sized bed was only $180 per night. For this reason, we didn't really expect all that much - so we were very impressed indeed!! The staff were very friendly when we checked in, the room was spotless, the bathroom was massive, the bed was comfortable ... wow! I've given it 5 stars because it exceeded my expectations for the price. I would definitely stay here again - it's in a perfect location to service the main street ;)
