The best thing about this place it the view. No matter what the weather, looking out over tree tops at the ocean is always calming and meditative. The second best thing is the location. The apartment is located walking distance to cafes, supermarkets, Cheltenham park (which is big!), Cheltenham train station and Southland shopping centre. I stayed here with my one-year-old daughter and found the area to be great for families. The apartment also has lots of toys, three bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it suitable for a family stay. If staying with small children, you might need to install a safety gate at the top of a rather steep staircase, but otherwise it's safe and kids love standing on the balcony pointing out the trains and buses that go by. I recommend this place for families or people who want a Melbourne experience away from the bustle of the city.
