John is a fantastic host. He responds quickly to every message, is warm and friendly, has a wealth of local knowledge to share, and his little dog Jack is just the cutest! The apartment was exactly as advertised - small but tidy and furnished with everything you'll need for your stay (including extras like myki cards, a desktop computer, shampoo & conditioner, sunscreen, umbrella, etc). The location couldn't be more convenient, right in the heart of the city and the free tram zone. Practically everything is within walking distance including China Town, Melbourne Museum, the State Library, and more restaurants than you could ever eat at! I found this accommodation to be great value and the heated rooftop pool really sweetened the deal.
