We just loved Alex's place. He was a great host, very helpful with flexible check in and out times. The renovations made us feel like we were in New York. It got a little chilly with the concert floors but we made very good use of the heating system and fire place. Loved the artwork and greenery all around the place and the kitchen tiles and bathroom (shower) were a sight for sore ideas. Walking distance to Smith St and some nice cafes/bars etc (in particular Dr. Morses' cafe!). A bit of a walk to Brunswick but so nice to do on a sunny day. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks for the bottle of wine on arrival, needless to say it was gone quickly!
