First off, Sam's place is really, really near the tram stop which is really convenient to travel to the CBD. It is also right off St Kilda beach and pier if you'd had time to explore lovely St Kilda! Neighborhood feels warm and safe even at night, with a couple of restaurants opening till late at night. Woolworths is situated within a walking distance and pretty big for all your grocery needs.
The apartment itself is very clean and neat with a good amount of space for a couple. Kitchen is very well maintained with some cooking essentials provided. All in all, a really cosy place to spend the evening (or even the entire day) at!
Sam was a very responsive host and tries to reply almost immediately with any queries that we had during our stay. Really had a great couple of days at Sam's place and really wished we could have stayed longer!
