This is a cool little house. I felt very safe in this friendly inner city neighborhood. Darren & Bruce's house was the perfect choice for my Melbourne experience, it's close to the city and easy walking distance to the train, cheap eats in Footscray and trendy Yarraville. The home has period charm but is totally renovated with all the modern comforts. A fully equipped kitchen, extensive library and NBN Internet. The house had really good heating and was quick to warm up and there is a really nice courtyard area.
Darren & Bruce are thoughtful hosts and communication with them was really easy and friendly. They left plenty of maps, information and a Myki card for public transport (the Seddon station is 5 minutes walk). I really enjoyed the Vietnamese food in Footscray, cheap and yummy. Also the Sun Theatre in Yarraville. Thank-you both for allowing me to stay in your lovely cottage, I think your house offers really good value to travelers and I highly recommend it.
