Christine offered to meet us at a monument in a nearby park because we had trouble finding her apartment (didn't have a map in the rental car). The parking options during the day were to either pay for parking in a spot on the street or pay for garage parking and neither choice was costly. The car was needed only to travel outside Melbourne. Apartment was clean, comfortable, and quiet. Christine was prepared to answer any questions that we had about the city. She also has just about every brochure available and she assisted us with planning some of our days. The location of the apartment was great (not too far from anything that a visitor may want to see). We either walked or took the trams to get around. We would highly recommend this apartment for 1-2 people looking for a great place to stay within the city limits.
