Apartment was as shown in the photos. However, carpet is noticeably stained, cutlery is not very well stocked, and the host is very slow to respond. The sofa as a bed is not the most comfortable. I would recommend the apartment for a stay for two people, not three. The area is fantastic, close to tram and bus routes with shops and restaurants within walking distance. The cost of the apartment is good for the area, as you are well serviced by public transport to get to other areas. Overall, a nice base to stay in Melbourne with a big kitchen area and other utilities in the apartment, however the apartment just lacks a bit of attention from the host.
