Very convenient place right near the CBD (downtown area) of Melbourne. It's a short walk to basically everywhere and close to the bus and tram stops as well. The issue other reviewers have mentioned with the windows on the first floor did make me a little uneasy, but I didn't find that it was much of a problem as long as you don't leave the windows more than a foot or so open and don't leave them open when you're not at home. The apartment got a little humid on hot days - a good dehumidifier would do wonders for the place.
