Kate was terrific host. We didn't meet in person and yet communication was seamless through AirBnB app. I was attending a workshop for my entire stay and Kate went out of her way to ensure I had what I needed to sustain me during my time in Melbourne. The apartment is small but has everything you need including tea etc, and bathroom products. The bed and pillows are comfortable. There are a couple of restaurants / bars / and craft brew pub just doors away from which to grab a meal. The little French cafe attached to the building is also great, and opens early enough for a sneaky morning coffee. I didn't walk into Central Melbourne so can't comment on centrality but it's an easy walk to Fitzroy which has lovely little shops, restaurants, cafe's and a gorgeous park. It's also just doors away from public transport and from Melbourne's e-bikes which were readily available and easy to use. It's flat terrain so walking and cycling were a breeze. Thanks Kate - will stay again!
