We were at Michael and Jenny’s for nine days. This was our first time visiting Melbourne. The apartment was located in the hub of the city. Everything was at close proximity from the apartment, be it the park, museum, the Victoria market or the Aquarium.
As for the apartment, it was pristine! We were very impressed with how well they had maintained the place. The kitchen was well equipped, which helped a lot, since we had two picky eaters (our toddlers) with us. I cooked almost everyday while we were there.
The apartment was well furnished, the bedrooms were tastefully done. Michael and Jenny had also provided us with extra pillows and blankets, which I was grateful for.
The day we reached Melbourne, Michael showed us around the apartment. He gave us a host of sightseeing suggestions and also provided us with a folder, that he had put together, consisting of all the places worth visiting, which we thought was extremely thoughtful of him.
Also a special mention goes to the fact that they had Netflix, which kept the toddlers busy, when we were home.
As far as the drawbacks are concerned, the kitchen exhaust wasn’t working, and the back alley got a little noisy at night, occasionally.
On the whole, we enjoyed our stay and felt very much at home. It was a pleasant experience and we would like to thank Michael and Jenny for being such kind and gracious hosts.
