The apartment is very calm, very functional, and very well located. We stayed there 3 weeks and could cook, sleep and live in the appart as if we were at home. The area is great with many shops, boutiques, restaurants and activities. Most importantly, its is at a walking distance to markets (cole, woolworth at 2 minutes), the tramway, train, and sixty car rental (5 minutes walk), and half-way in tram between the city and the beach. Thus a perfect central location to visit Melbourne and the region.
