I stayed in Carolyn's apartment in South Melbourne for 7 nights and felt very safe and comfortable. I did not meet Carolyn but we communicated via email and she was very responsive and helpful. The apartment is cosy and has been so well designed that everything you would need has been fit into the flat. The location is excellent, the tram line is just a short walk away. It took about 10 - 15 mins to get into the city. The fabulous St Kilda is also nearby. There is an IGA just next door and lots of cafes and restaurants in the area. The description (and photos) of the apartment is very accurate. I highly recommend Carolyn's apartment.
