Eric's apartment was perfect for our long stay needs! We extended our vacation here after the pandemic hit and the borders locked down, and we couldn't have picked a better place! The apartment has its own washer and dryer in the unit, so you don't have to risk sharing germs in a large laundry room. We really appreciated the dishwasher and full sized refrigerator, too, so that we could stock up with food and make cleanup a breeze. When we weren't able to move on to Perth for the second part of our vacation, Eric worked with us so we could extend our stay in his place. The big supermarket is right across the street, as is the chemist, Kmart, Ikea, a doctor's office and the tram that goes to the CBD. That was perfect since we didn't have a car, so had to walk or rely on public transportation for our daily needs. The apartment is clean and safe and so comfortable. Eric even accommodated our crazy check-in request to stock us up with an extra supply of toilet paper for our arrival since the stores were having shortages and we were worried we could be caught short. The apartment is right beside the Yarra River walking track, which we have walked for long, long distances, nearly every day. The big screen tv was great for streaming Neflix, too! The complex has wonderful amenities like a pool and fitness center, though these were closed within a day or two of our arrival. Building management made upgrades to the pool facilities during the lockdown, and are anxious to reopen to all the residents soon. Eric's place has been even better than we expected, and we feel safe, healthy, comfortable and well cared for during these crazy times. What more could anyone ask for! Highly recommended, five stars! We hope to stay here again, someday.
