Ken & Michelle are unbelievably amazing hosts. This was my first time to Australia. Before I even arrived I was sure my experience was going to be unforgettable and it was! Ken went above and beyond making sure I knew what to do when I had arrived at the airport. I was suppose to land at 7am and did not arrive until 11am. He was picking me up and was very kind and accommodating when my international flight was delayed hours into his day. I was very comfortable as a young single girl traveler. He is funny and super nice. They didn't have to but they made me breakfast and delicious coffee every morning along with a fresh fruit bowl a few hours later then a fresh fruit smoothie a few hours after that! I thought I was just paying for a room and beautiful water front view.
Docklands is super nice and unexpectedly quiet being in the middle of a busy city. Its on the Yarra River which runs through all of Melbourne. Walking distance to so many awesome restaurants. The famous Webb bridge is right outside the door. And the walk day or night along the Yarra River is something I will never forget.
My room was beautiful, clean, and private. Gorgeous views thanks to the floor to ceiling windows.The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean.
They really are super hosts. Their hospitality was incredible. They took me around on a night drive to see the city views and then took me to dinner on my first night. Ken is from Melbourne and knows everything about the city. They suggested tours and things to do. I did all of them! They let me use there smaller personal luggage to make it easier for me to travel around other destinations in Australia. They dropped me off at the bus station and made sure I knew how to get around. They drew me maps, Helped me book flights, let me use their phone to call locally, and drove me to my next airbnb location. Truly incredible. Highly recommended. It was home away from home.
