Alices place was just a home away from home. Very warm and beautiful, just a house in Melbourne where we would live. It is remarkably private and quiet. The neighborhood has everything you need, we made a good use of the kids adventure park in Edinburgh gardens nearby, the Smith street has all the hip restaurants and shops, its a vibrant place to stroll around. Were also surprised to find out it would be a nice walk from city centre, not far at all if you like walking the lively streets. We did not meet Alice, but everything was so considerate and well organized. We had a lovely welcome from her.
