The apartment was really nice and clean, and had all the equipments that were needed for a two-month stay. Gary was very thoughtful host and always available, if we had any questions or concerns. South Yarra is such a nice and beautiful place. Closeness to the busy Chapel street area with many shops and restaurants, as well as to the Botanic park ensure that there are plenty of things to do, see, and eat at close distance :)! Direct tram route (8) from Toorak road to the City centre and Melbourne university was definitely a plus. Perhaps the only thing that was a bit surprising in Melbourne in general and in South Yarra in particular was the relatively high price level (I was expecting lower than home in Finland, but I think the costs of dining out, visiting coffee shops, etc. were roughly at the same level). But then again, this was my first visit to Australia, and I do admit that I didn't really do research about this in advance :).
