The host was so very welcoming and could not have done more to make our stay such a fantastic experience- thank you Katarina. The location is perfect 10min tram ride into the heart of the city-Melbourne and a 5 min walk from the home to the best restaurants on Lygon street. I cannot see how anyone could be unhappy staying here.
