Erin’s apartment was newer and nice, especially for the area. There’s a convenient train stop (Middle Footscray) only a 5-minute walk away, and you only occasionally hear the noise of the train (but it never bothered us).
The bedroom is cosy. With the blinds shut, it’s so dark it’s easy to fall asleep. There is a dog nearby who likes to bark, but it never really kept us awake.
If you’re planning to eat in, the kitchenware is pretty poor quality (and ants milling about), but there are many nice restaurants nearby to eat out at. Coles and Kmart are an easy 5 minute drive away if you have a car.
Getting into the CBD is a short 15 minute train ride away which was nice and easy.
The bathroom was nice but with pretty limited hot water (though good shower pressure). It was convenient to have two separate toilets too.
Highlight: very comfortable couch.
Overall not a bad place, but wouldn’t stay here again. We’ve stayed in much better.
