I thought that this place was a good spot to stay when I stayed here awhile ago. We ended up…read moregetting an apartment with two bedrooms, just because we were travelling with my parents-in-law and wanted somewhere central. That's the big draw-card for us, that it's so close to town. Otherwise, I would have been quite happy to stay out at Quest at Mawson Lakes, which is a great little place too. The apartment was nicely furnished, and for this sort of place, there was sufficient room to do cooking. I've stayed at plenty of these sorts of places where you've got three quarters of bugger all space to cook your dinner or even sit down to eat. It was neat, the bathroom was nice, and the staff were friendly and courteous. It's a winner.

I moved into my new student digs about a week ago now. This isn't the first time I've moved out of…read morehome, and it isn't the first time I've been living in a specialty student place (hello boarding school), but Urbanest is definitely a different experience. First of all the communal areas are pretty snazzy. Everything is modern, there are silent study areas, places to hang out, and a great balcony with a bbq that I suspect will be perfect for entertaining in Summer. The location is also fabulous, and yes, I was tempted to give them 5 stars just for being located next to Mamak Corner and only a short walk from Mandoo. This is my first taste of city living (in Adelaide) and I could get used to this. The rooms themselves are pretty small. Not impossibly tiny small, you could fit a single mattress on the floor if you were having a sleepover, but not much else. The range of crockery & cutlery also isn't quite as snazzy as they show you in the show apartment. The only real downers would be that wireless internet can be pretty darn slow, and it'll cost you $4 every time you need to wash & dry some clothes. There are activities daily, and they get plenty of deals to pass onto students. Like I said, I've been here a week. I doubt my rating will go down during my 1 year stint, but there's every possibility it will go up once I discover more things to do.

I hope this helps people who are looking for accommodations. DON'T STAY IN URBANEST. It í…read moreridiculously expensive, and not worth your money. The rooms are tiny, the kitchen is tiny, the bathroom is smaller than a normal closet. The closet is around the size of a cupboard. Don't let the pictures fool you. The rooms and windows are smaller in real life. You can't really cook in the kitchen. The utensils they give you are not enough. The bathroom's sink and shower doesn't drain properly. Worst of all, they have a 15GB cap on wifi. You have to pay more to use more. The internet add-on prices are very expensive. They want to make money off of students. Another thing, they subtract the amount of internet you use incorrectly so that no matter how much you try to limit your wifi usage, you would have to buy more data around the end of the month. The staff here are not friendly. They will appear as super friendly and helpful during the first few days, but their attitudes change after the first week. They change from happy friendly to condescending very quickly. Doing laundry here is a nightmare. They only have a few washers and dryers. Washing costs $4 per load. Same goes for drying. The dryers leave my clothes damp, and they are still damp after the second drying. Overall, if I could choose, I would not live at urbanest. It's not worth the money that I spent. The only reason why I'm living here now is because my school wouldn't let me live independently. If you're thinking about moving in to urbanest, please consider independent or shared housing. You would save a lot more money and avoid the hassle, anger, and disappointment.

Whether you have a large-scale event or a 18th birthday party to plan, you will find what you need here to make your party sound & look great. There range of equipment includes professional to rookie style: sound, effects machines, drapes, lighting and riggings. The staff here are super friendly and will walk you through how to use the equipment if you have not used it before. They also have sound staff you can hire if you have a large scale event to run. All of the equipment I have hired from Osmonds has been in great condition and work perfectly. They always chuck in a couple of extra cords just in case. Which is great, sound cords sometimes can be touchy. What I also love about this place is that they will refer you to the right local businesses when you need equipment they don't stock. Like staging for example. It is great to know that you are looked after no matter what you need here!
