I had a lovely stay in Nicolas's home. The location is perfect - walking distance to the main thoroughfare of St Kilda and close to lots of restaurants/pubs etc. There is a Coles supermarket less than 5 minutes walk away and the SkyBus is only a 9-minute walk which makes the location perfect for those coming from the airport. Nicolas communicated with me very well and the check-in was very smooth with some flexibility. My room was comfortable and private, with drawer space and close to the front door so I wouldn't disturb the house upon late arrival or early departure. Although this is a share-home, I only saw Nicolas a few times due to his work schedule but he communicated with me the times he would be home to allow for more privacy. I was also able to meet the cute house cat who seems very warm to people. Overall, a great stay for someone who is looking for a more affordable option to visit a centrally-located, beach-side area of Melbourne.
