We absolutely loved our stay at Linette's place. The apartment is 10/15min walk into the CBD and just around the corner from Lygon St where you'll find some great restaurants & cafes tucked away, as well as the awesome Cinema Nova & many great shops. Easily walkable 20mins to North Melbourne & 30 mins to Fitzroy too (melbs museum/gardens is super close too & great place I check out the bats & possums at night). Our favourite cafes all within 5 mins walk were Queensbury Pour House, Humble Rays, Assembly & Seven Seeds. All do great coffee & breakfasts. Try Don Tojo around the corner for insanely cheap but good Japanese food & $4 beer! The tram is literally outside the apartment that takes you into the city and beyond, to the main train stations & down south to St Kilda etc. We had quite a long stay at Linette's & felt immediately at home, super convenient area, central yet really quiet in the apartment at night & air con was a blessing during the hot summer days. Perfect size for a couple wanting to explore Melbourne, everything you need is here & Linette's communication was super speedy, she was very helpful & the perfect host. We would highly recommend staying here & would love to come back.
