I spent almost 19 weeks at Christi's place and I do recommend it. The room is as pictured and the location is very convenient. The nearest train stop is a leisurely 12 minute walk from her place and there are three convenient bus stops less ranging about 5 to 10 mins walk away, allowing for easy access to shops and the city. Christi and her husband were helpful to provide a heater, towels and sheets during my stay as I was there in the peak of winter. There is also a stand fan in the room should you need extra ventilation. My only critique would be that the bathroom does not have a lock which could have resulted in awkward encounters with other guests staying at the house but a well placed pair of house slippers does well to act as a IN USE sign. All in all, I would recommend this place for a stay in Melbourne
