Great space. Lots of room. Wonderful location for easy access to the Yarra River, the CBD and St Kilda. The area is a bit gritty but Aldi, Coles and Woolworths are within easy walking distance. Lovely owner who lives next door.

Great introduction to Australia

The place was comfortable for a week long stay. The location in the Southbank area was within walking distance to many attractions with tram connections in front of the building. Our hosts were friendly and shared local knowledge readily. Very much enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in that area.

We had a wonderful experience, from initial contact to handing over the keys at the end. Our hosts were friendly and accommodating, ensuring that our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The unit is situated in such a great location, a short walk into the city and tram connections to St Kilda and surrounds. Overall we could not recommend this enough, a great getaway.
