Our host was great. Responded very quickly and helpfully. The apartment was clean and bright. Plus, had air conditioning in the living area and bedroom, which was required in summer.Bed was super comfortable.
A quiet, clean safe unit in an excellent location for my needs.
All amenities worked and the unit had them all.

Comfortable, convenient, light filled apartment
The apartment is as represented by the photos; all was comfortable in attractively styled surroundings in a small, quiet and secure block with very easy access to shops and trams.
The owner communicated very promptly and clearly and, since we were booking from a different state, that helped us to quickly feel that we could rely on all being as we had expected.
I'll happily recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in Melbourne within easy reach of the city and surroundings.
