This is a very well-equipped unit in a fairly level part of Watsonia, about a 10 minute walk to shops and the metro station. It is also very quiet and felt safe. We particularly chose this part of Melbourne as it was close to our son, who is a 10 minute walk in a different direction. The property was well described and has a washing machine, 2 outside washing lines (one on the side of the house through the back door and the other in a little garden at the back) and a tumble dryer should it actually rain. We used the washing machine a couple of times as we were travelling around for a total of 4 weeks, being over from the UK. The kitchen has everything you could possibly want, although we were eating out most of the time and only used it for breakfasting and an occasional ready meal in the microwave. There is a good phone and broadband signal. WiFi access was found in the unit brochure. Parking is under the carport but we only used this once or twice when we borrowed our son's car, or when he came to collect/visit us. The owner was excellent with communicating. We were entertained in the mornings by the beautiful tunes of the Australian magpies....such a delightful song compared with the horrible squawks from their UK cousins!
