Apartment was great to come home to after long and heavy days at a conference. Facilities were excellent although we did not cook or eat there. Appreciated that it was close to the Melbourne Convention Centre, restaurants and places to catch up with friends as well as the CBD. Would like to return in the future. Host was so kind, caring and much appreciated.

Perfect base for visiting Melbourne

We stayed at Julie's apartment for two weeks while visiting Melbourne and the coastal area. It was a perfect place to base our visit. The building is right on the south bank of Yarra River. Easy walk to tram and across the river to many places of interest. Communication with Julie was great. We would stay here again if we come back to Melbourne.

Perfect Melbourne city stay

Cannot recommend this property enough. Fabulous location and view, quiet, very comfortable bed and sparkling clean. All the extras you can think of were included, such as coffee pods, laundry liquid, kitchen condiments, extra pillows and blankets etc and obviously a lot of thought and pride goes into this property. We look forward to the next time we can come and stay. Host was friendly and accomodating.

The apartment is comfortable and well maintained. It is in a great location, near the Tram, museums, Royal Botanic Gardens and shopping. We took a number of day trips, and the pick up spots were all close by and convenient. The views are amazing, especially at sunset.

Excellent Location

Great cooking facilities and supplies. Shower had plenty of hot water and water pressure. The washer and dryer were very handy. The apartment was clean and had plenty of cleaning supplies for trash removal, washer and dish washer. The favorite part was the location minutes from the Southbank restaurants, and CBD restaurants and shopping. Would definitely stay again.

Very well presented and specified apartment in the heart of the Southbank. Views of the Yarra and Crown Casino, and Port Melbourne in the distance. Some noise from the cars in the streets below, and air conditioners (not sure where from though), but nothing to concern us.Overall, very good stay!
