Unfortunately you missed this place at its peak, used to be called Hotel Adjacent Casino, it has now been renovated, would you believe, when my mates told me they booked there for a night on the town (no one ever really sleeps there) I said look out for syringes, one was found within a minute, usually jammed down the drain, and the bedside lamp lightbulbs were all missing…
Did stay there during its peak as 'hotel adjacent casino' it looks semi clean and new now compared to what it was back then, the place was a total dive.
As a long time hotel worker, I can tell you the commercial cleaners do NOT use soap as you would know it, but instead they use some kind of noxious cleaning chemical that is solvent based. Thats usually what gives hotel towels and linens the odd smell and the whiteness. (Bleach is expensive). The solvents make the cloth dry faster and dissolves more gross stuff than soaps do. Hopefully. Lol.
Yeah I was a cleaner at the Lamplighter in. Basically a hotel for hookers and drug dealers during COVID. And we 100% would use bleach. As bleach isn't that expensive. If you think there is no bottom line for bleach when they were making 150 a night of a dirt motel per room. Then I really question the ethics of the people running your hotel/motel
I work in a hotel in SA. About 20 mins drive from Adelaide on the coast. We work really hard to impress our guests and try to meet their requests as best we can. But there are some weird things that I have seen guests do. A couple of stories that come to mind. 1 guest put tape all over the motion sensors in the room that are there to turn off the air conditioning if no one is in the room for 30mins or so. Thinking they were some kind of surveillance. Why on earth would we want to spy on a guest is beyond me. Another guest brought an entire microwave up to their room. Then left it there like lost property. They never collected it. It was brand new and worth about $170. It was in our lost property for about 4 months and considered abandoned. It is now currently in my house getting the use it deserves.
Nah I can understand the person who covered the motion sensors thinking they were cameras. They didn't know and evil people disguise cameras in hotel rooms more often than you'd think
@@Fluff_Noodles That statement has no basis in reality. If anything its the opposite of what you just said. It's far less often than you think. Not even 1% chance. I can understand the paranoia, but that all it is. Bad take.
That's nothing! When I visited pommy land we stayed in a room that had either been cleaned with carcinogens for 20 years, and/or it was a crime scene that had never been attended! Couldn't breath, had to move after 1 hour when our skin began to sting from the sheets. Talked to the night watch guy. Every room was the same, so we stood in the lobby all night talking...
Last year I stayed at an absolute shocker of a Hotel at a services outside Winchester. The first room they tried to put us in on the ground floor smelt so bad of damp and mold my wife and I both started coughingnon stop as soon as we closed the door. We went out an insisted on an upstairs room which was quite a bit better. Even though I gave them a 1 star review and said it should only be used as a place of last resort.
The room you're in is truly upper class. The room I stayed in a few years back had skirting's falling off, the only chair was missing a leg, the TV was a CRT with set-top box that didn't work, & the air con didn't work.
By the time the business handed over in 2018, we were lucky anything was working. Business owners were in it for residency purposes and ran it into the ground.
Looks like an old office space converted to a hotel. In the cheapest way possible might i add. Similar to some old moldy crusted out motels here in the US.
No way, not ol' Cosmo! When I was 20, I had to travel to Adelaide for work and this is the hotel they put me up in. I saw more prostitutes in the elevator than I did members of staff, and I was there for a week. It was the first hotel I'd ever stayed in on my own, scarred me for a while. There was blood on the shower floor, and puke on the carpet of the floor I was staying on. You're a brave man Jordies to be going there of your own volition knowing what you'll likely encounter.
Thats a solid 3 stars. My family were going from victoria to queensland on holiday, the room we got at a motel in the middle of nowhere looked like it hadn't been used in a decade, cobwebs & spiders everywhere, mouse/rat shit on the beds, cockroaches under the sheets. Have seen meth dens that would be a more comfortable & safe place to sleep. That was 30 years ago & I still fucking remember it.
@@aussiebaka4588 It's quite possible. We were going to dysart which is 1.5 hours away. I remember it being an unscheduled stop late at night & was the only place open.
The cheap drop ceiling was marvelous. The mugs were probably in the fridge, sometimes they put them in there so that they don't have to dust them every time.
Balranald's gotta be in the mix!! Dirty sheets, mould on the toast (after ld eaten some!), filthy bar fridge, dodgy TV, gronks sneaking into the carpark at night and one 5w lightbulb working!! They shd have minus star reviews mate!

@baabaabaa-yp2jh certain types of fungal growth on Rye bread specifically makes you trip balls. Apparently it produces a compound very similar to LSD. It also destroys your blood vessels and makes you fingers and toes fall off but hey, gotta take the good with the bad. Have a squiz on the old google for "ergot poisoning" for more info on that lmao
Let's be honest this was just an excuse for Jordies to get his kit off again :P Also gotta say: There's no way I'd be using that kettle from all the horror stories of people spitting (or worse) into them. and you KNOW a hotel like that will only change the plastic bag in the bin if there's wet stuff in it. All those tissues & other "dry" waste would just be picked out/emptied into a bigger bag.
The “adjacent from casino” would be the most dirt spot in Adelaide. Sometimes the cleaners just leave the gatorade bongs and ice pipes in the room for you.
never heard of this hotel but the convenience store across from it is where one of my old my mates who had just been in hospital for alcohol poisoning bought herself a lighter to smoke the 400 half smoked durries she picked up off hindley because she knew they wouldnt ID her. bank street definitely has its audience down pat
By the way, I wouldn't be putting any of my Netflix passwords into a motel TV, either. They already have other personal details since you've booked the room already, so they might as well match your passwords to all that data too. I also wouldn't use their "free" wifi if you paid me. Basically, what I've learned from these comments is, if you stay in an Australian hotel or motel, you must: - wear a hazmat suit and shoes at all times, especially in the bathroom - BYO bug spray for the roaches, oh god the roaches - BYO sleeping bag and only sleep in that (you can use garbage bin liners to line the bed and then put the sleeping bag on top of that) - don't touch the kettle under any circumstances - best not to touch any other surface without industrial gloves on - relieve yourself in their facilities only if given absolutely no other option (line toilet seat heavily first) - keep windows open so you don't die from mould spores & THE SMELLS (you are required to sacrifice your ability to sleep though, since you'll be getting all the street noise all night) - for god's sake don't get naked for any reason If you take proper precautions out there, you just might survive a night or two.
That was the hotel i stated at for the first few days of me movjng to adelaide, worst part of that hotel is that you can hear ecerything on the street below
100% can hear everything. Guaranteed to be a tone deaf busker playing something at an ungodly hour of morning or night, just to spend it on smokes or a drink later in the day
This is nowhere near as bad as the hotel in Nashville that had claw marks on the inside of the bathroom door. I'm surprised I didn't find a fingernail still stuck in it.
Duty manager here. I've been in the hotel game for the past 15 years, worked pretty much every department in a hotel, in 3 star budget motels, 5 star resorts and everything in between. The issue with a lot of reviews with these types of properties is, as Jordies pointed out a few times, these guests expect 5 star facilities in a 3 star setting. You pay budget prices, you get budget facilities, it's really simple. Research is something these people never do either. As an example, I spent some time working in a small boutique hotel in the heart of Fortitude Valley, Brisbane, which for those who aren't aware, is where all the big night clubs and bars in Brisbane are. We would get complaints and negative reviews about the noise and crowds around the hotel, something that 30 seconds on google could have easily prepared the guest for. This hotel looks fine for the price. It's definitely catered to the 'after dark' crowd, has some questionable housekeeping, but I've seen worse for more.
I remember going to Cambodia as a child with my adopted Cambodian Grandma, and you were lucky to get a actual toliet, let alone toilet paper. Most hotels just had a hose in the bathroom.
Trying to find the worst hotel in Adelaide is like trying to find a needle in a haystack; not because they're all good but because they're all in Adelaide.
i stayed in a place in ipswich qld once. I boiled the kettle and made myself a coffee, there was a weird baconny flavour to it. Opened up the kettle to find floaties of ham fat in the freshly boiled water. Guess they did supply cooking appliances. Always, Always check the kettle
I used to work at one of the higher end hotels in Adelaide and each weekend we hah what we called the Bogan special which was a cheap room with free parking. The amount of complaints from people that payed next to F all was incredible. People paid about $150 per night and expected to be given the president suite. Ah the memories of arguing with Bogans from Elizabeth. Takes me back.
The fuck? I live in Adelaide and go past here on the regular on my way to work and I didn't even know it was a hotel. Hell, I thought it was an office building and based on the ceiling panels, I'd say it was.
We went to one similar in Melbourne recently. Looked okay in the pictures. Lots of dodgy people lurking around all hours - then at about 2am the toilet started making gross noises and spitting poop out- so I shut the lid and the door and we got another hours sleep then got dressed and went to maccas to go to the loo- then drive home 2 hours.
I've walked past there many times on my way to work thinking about how dodgy that place must be. You've just shattered my perceptions of it! It probably smells of pizza as there used to be a pizza joint across the road for a number of years before the trendy bar went in.
Some step-in manager came down to Adelaide from Melbourne and she asked if we even had any international flights. I now wonder if the company put her up in this place, as that would make sense.
At first I was thinking the tea is aspirational of the hotel they want it to be, but the more I thought about it I think it’s a relic of the hotel it once was.
about a decade ago i found myself between houses and contacted the government for temporary accommodation. they put up in the park view hotel broadway sydney. the room had no window. every surface was filthy. it was humid and smelly and there were bugs. i stayed one night there before returning to my favourite park bench where i felt cleaner and safer. hotel goes by name breakfree now and appears to have been renovated.
I've stayed in this hotel, and his room is a million times better than the one I stayed in. The windows were painted over, and it had blood stains on the carpet
Some friends & I arrived at our hotel in Brisbane for Soundwave back in the day. Said hotel was undergoing renovations, & when we got up to our shoebox, that had bunk beds plus a single, there was no power & wouldn’t be until the next day - we had to go buy candles from a nearby 7-11. The shower was this small triangle in the corner of the bathroom, which my 5’7” 50kg self could barely turn around in so I have no idea how my mate Big Kev managed in there. As I was the smallest I was designated the top bunk - I smashed my face on the ceiling when I sat up in the morning. Needless to say, we never let Rigby book the accommodation again. Apart from all that, it was an awesome weekend & we still laugh about it to this day
I think it closed down but there used to be a motel in Moss Vale NSW with ZERO stars because it was that crap. I tried to book a hotel in town one weekend and they were full so I asked about other options and was told “there’s the Golf Ball Motel but it’s got zero stars for a reason” so I ended up staying in Goulburn instead. Glad I did.
Theres a pub in St Lawrence that is simultaneous one of the worst places ive stayed, and one of the best. Its the pinnacle of "old pub". Tongue in groove walls that if you put your eye up to them you can see through because the building has shifted. The tiniest room possible with the most beds in them that will fit. You walk down the balcony ton go to the toilet or shower. Zero heating or cooling, and fuck, out there you would love both. But I loved it. The water pressure was enough to peel skin off. The publican was the nicest dude. It was 50 for a night for 4 people. The food was really nice. And it just had the best atmosphere. It really was like stepping back in time to one of those old australian bush movies
Ive been to some bad hotels but I remember one particularly bad one, the service was shit, there were rats, the rooms were tiny, everything looked a bit dirty and the food wasn't very good... But thats just what you get for a cheap hotel in Czechia
If you ever want to make a sequel to this but in a different state, go to the Australian Hotel in Boonah, Queensland. It's much worse than that hotel :)
Check in the floating roof for a broken bedside table... we got our bond back. If you open the window, you can throw your pizza slices at people on the street.
A couple of my mates from Brissy stayed here once before the switch in ownership, to throw the rubbish out they had to take the dingy lift to a random floor marked 'waste'. The doors slid open and a foul odour burst forth from the pitch black abyss, rat-scuffling could be heard in the near distance. The boys toss the bin bag into the darkness and get the fuck outta there. Yes we smoked in the room.
Be wary of the Clarkson combo: Alarm set to 3:50 AM Kipper in the trouser press (If the building's old enough to have one, else use the air duct) Pee in the kettle
Damn thats the worst hotel the one I stayed at in the UK which was a 3* was a closet sized toilet & the main room was so small it just had a 6 foot hallway which led to a tiny room which the double bed took up 99% of it & it had no windows
Small world. Me and some work pals stayed here at this Dump a couple of years b4 covid hit but we just needed a bed and a place to shower as we were only there for 2 nights and the rest of our time was spent at a work site and The Crazy Horse...Just sayin.
Once you are swinging free and clear with your mate that's when you know you are solid buddies. Great roommates. Perfectly timed for Pride Month. Much respect.
Breaking news: local Australian dies of many diseases, possibly contracted by drinking tea from the trash and rubbing whatever was on the toilet in his eye.

For those playing at home it was called "Hotel Adjacent Casino" because it's a hotel, and it is adjacent to the casino. Thanks.

Furthermore, anyone who has done housekeeping knows you never replace the bin liner, just tip whatever is in there into your cart and move on.
Hotel towels are always so stiff and scratchy.
If you sprayed a bit of Luminol,around and got one of the those black lights you;d be able to see the room from space.
I wast thinking that it would look like a modern art piece. I bet swabbing it for drug traces would be just as interesting and varied.
Just get out a black light. I bet that would be enough 😂😂😂

Basically, what I've learned from these comments is, if you stay in an Australian hotel or motel, you must:
- wear a hazmat suit and shoes at all times, especially in the bathroom
- BYO bug spray for the roaches, oh god the roaches
- BYO sleeping bag and only sleep in that (you can use garbage bin liners to line the bed and then put the sleeping bag on top of that)
- don't touch the kettle under any circumstances
- best not to touch any other surface without industrial gloves on
- relieve yourself in their facilities only if given absolutely no other option (line toilet seat heavily first)
- keep windows open so you don't die from mould spores & THE SMELLS (you are required to sacrifice your ability to sleep though, since you'll be getting all the street noise all night)
- for god's sake don't get naked for any reason
If you take proper precautions out there, you just might survive a night or two.

1:30 am east coast US
Yoooo same here 🇬🇧
I should sleep
I’m also in the uk but this was what I watched with my cuppa 🤣
Been around since Jordan started doing skits on youtube all the way up to now and i got to say i do like this new type of "investigative" video.
the bin tea - gold
I’m so glad I watched 6:40 I have Covid thanks for the laughs fellow jordan
We went to one similar in Melbourne recently. Looked okay in the pictures.
Lots of dodgy people lurking around all hours - then at about 2am the toilet started making gross noises and spitting poop out- so I shut the lid and the door and we got another hours sleep then got dressed and went to maccas to go to the loo- then drive home 2 hours.
I've walked past there many times on my way to work thinking about how dodgy that place must be. You've just shattered my perceptions of it!
It probably smells of pizza as there used to be a pizza joint across the road for a number of years before the trendy bar went in.
If this hotel is a 1 star, the hotels over here in America are negative 5 stars
Depends
7:57 is the exact place from my year 7 camp.. that wigged me tf out haha
Some step-in manager came down to Adelaide from Melbourne and she asked if we even had any international flights. I now wonder if the company put her up in this place, as that would make sense.
wheres the uncensored vid???
At first I was thinking the tea is aspirational of the hotel they want it to be, but the more I thought about it I think it’s a relic of the hotel it once was.
0:44 "All the anemities" lmao
Thank you for not bad mouthing everything about that motel. Very refreshing to see an honest review of a so/so room. Have fun 😂😂😂
about a decade ago i found myself between houses and contacted the government for temporary accommodation. they put up in the park view hotel broadway sydney. the room had no window. every surface was filthy. it was humid and smelly and there were bugs. i stayed one night there before returning to my favourite park bench where i felt cleaner and safer. hotel goes by name breakfree now and appears to have been renovated.
I've stayed in this hotel, and his room is a million times better than the one I stayed in. The windows were painted over, and it had blood stains on the carpet
Did you stay in the Mafia’s headquarters 💀💀
The heat on the plastic bag is more cancer forming than anything thats been in that bin
If you were really from radelaide you would have re-used an old gatorade bong for the tea cup. Splendid!
It has a bed that looks like the sheets are changed, so it’s at least 5 stars for escaping to have sex there.
Drinking tea out of that bean was dangerous , man
Him laughing his ass of with That laughter while naked is so horrifying, hahahaha
3:40 As someone from Cambodia, I can say with certainty
yeah...
Some friends & I arrived at our hotel in Brisbane for Soundwave back in the day. Said hotel was undergoing renovations, & when we got up to our shoebox, that had bunk beds plus a single, there was no power & wouldn’t be until the next day - we had to go buy candles from a nearby 7-11.
The shower was this small triangle in the corner of the bathroom, which my 5’7” 50kg self could barely turn around in so I have no idea how my mate Big Kev managed in there. As I was the smallest I was designated the top bunk - I smashed my face on the ceiling when I sat up in the morning. Needless to say, we never let Rigby book the accommodation again.
Apart from all that, it was an awesome weekend & we still laugh about it to this day
Hahaha you should have taken a camera detector in there hahahaha that would have been gold
i had to look away for the tea sipping and just went "oooo nooo nono no nonooooOOO" :D
This hotel is the most common place in Adelaide for dead bodies.
Mostly self deleted.
So people are just dying to stay there ? 🤣
three in 18 years isnt too bad a rate for this industry
@PrincesPark-ug9mx 3 every 18mths you mean?

The goblin laugh as he's taking off his undies lol
I think it closed down but there used to be a motel in Moss Vale NSW with ZERO stars because it was that crap. I tried to book a hotel in town one weekend and they were full so I asked about other options and was told “there’s the Golf Ball Motel but it’s got zero stars for a reason” so I ended up staying in Goulburn instead. Glad I did.
Theres a pub in St Lawrence that is simultaneous one of the worst places ive stayed, and one of the best. Its the pinnacle of "old pub". Tongue in groove walls that if you put your eye up to them you can see through because the building has shifted. The tiniest room possible with the most beds in them that will fit. You walk down the balcony ton go to the toilet or shower. Zero heating or cooling, and fuck, out there you would love both. But I loved it. The water pressure was enough to peel skin off. The publican was the nicest dude. It was 50 for a night for 4 people. The food was really nice. And it just had the best atmosphere. It really was like stepping back in time to one of those old australian bush movies
That bin liner was probably not fresh....
Uncensored version on Patreon?
Ive been to some bad hotels but I remember one particularly bad one, the service was shit, there were rats, the rooms were tiny, everything looked a bit dirty and the food wasn't very good... But thats just what you get for a cheap hotel in Czechia
Mad props to the camera man, and editor. You boys are champions, takin one for the team,.
9:05 so...can he just crawl thru there into someone else's room? I mean idk if the roof is that stable but maybe if you went in the right spots?
If you ever want to make a sequel to this but in a different state, go to the Australian Hotel in Boonah, Queensland. It's much worse than that hotel :)
I stayed here a few weeks ago and that viking manager guy did not care that none of the electricity in my room worked
Check in the floating roof for a broken bedside table... we got our bond back.
If you open the window, you can throw your pizza slices at people on the street.
I’d love more hotel reviews like this
6:40 what has been seen, can NOT be unseen....
*shudder*
A couple of my mates from Brissy stayed here once before the switch in ownership, to throw the rubbish out they had to take the dingy lift to a random floor marked 'waste'. The doors slid open and a foul odour burst forth from the pitch black abyss, rat-scuffling could be heard in the near distance. The boys toss the bin bag into the darkness and get the fuck outta there. Yes we smoked in the room.
Legit got jumpscared by that edit lol didn't expect that
Be wary of the Clarkson combo:
Alarm set to 3:50 AM
Kipper in the trouser press (If the building's old enough to have one, else use the air duct)
Pee in the kettle
Damn thats the worst hotel the one I stayed at in the UK which was a 3* was a closet sized toilet & the main room was so small it just had a 6 foot hallway which led to a tiny room which the double bed took up 99% of it & it had no windows
Small world.
Me and some work pals stayed here at this Dump a couple of years b4 covid hit
but we just needed a bed and a place to shower as we were only there for 2 nights
and the rest of our time was spent at a work site and The Crazy Horse...Just sayin.
FriendlyJordies: Come for the biting political commentary, stay for the grown man drinking tea out of a hotel rubbish bin.
Once you are swinging free and clear with your mate that's when you know you are solid buddies. Great roommates. Perfectly timed for Pride Month. Much respect.
5:17 Too many people used the mugs as ashtrays....just saying.
I walk past this joint on the daily work commute. Inside vibes match the outside vibes.
Breaking news: local Australian dies of many diseases, possibly contracted by drinking tea from the trash and rubbing whatever was on the toilet in his eye.
@0:17 Is that Frenchy?
3:16 just gave yourself pink-eye - WASH THOSE FILTHY HANDS MATE!! :-p
