I enjoyed my time at Marks. He’s a very hospitable and friendly host. It may be worth noting that the place is quite compact so any noise does carry throughout the apartment in case you care a lot about noise and privacy, but it’s not too much of an issue. It’s a 5min walk to Carlisle St which has Coles, Woolworths and an organic grocer for all your grocery shopping and an eclectic variety of cafés and restaurants for any appetite.
