We could have asked for nothing more!! The house was a true home, perfectly set out for a stay by 4 generations of our family from Brisbane and New Zealand. Jayne was so friendly and went beyond the usual role of a host to make sure that we had everything that we needed and had settled in. We had contact details but did not need to contact her for anything. There were vases of fresh flowers placed around the house - a lovely touch!
Everything we needed and more was supplied. We were free to use the contents of the pantry and on looking in the freezer found a family-sized freshly baked apple pie! The kitchen was well set out, with an amazing fridge/freezer and large oven (although we didn't need to prepare many of our meals - the eateries close-by are well worth visiting) The living area was very comfortable with ample seating and received good light. It had doors opening onto an outside decked area, where there were tables and bench seats - perfect for outdoor eating and relaxing. Our granddaughter enjoyed watching and feeding the goldfish and seeing the bugs and bees fly down to get a drink.
The beds were super-comfortable with good quality linen, lovely soft towels were supplied. As we had a toddler with us, we appreciated the use of the cot and high chair. And there was an assortment of children's books in the cupboard, along with a large box of toys. All of this was no hassle for the owner to supply. It was a very child-friendly environment.
The rooms were all of a very generous size. We were able to give my elderly father his own room with adjoining ensuite. Another room even had an awesome bath. The two rooms without ensuites had the use of a more than ample separate bathroom, with shower and toilet.
The location was perfect. There was no issue in getting supplies as the supermarket was only a few minutes away. The local shops were great to look through, such variety. Although we had rental cars, we made use of both the train and tram to get into the city, getting our Myki cards from the chemist just around the corner in Sydney Road.
We were able to relax and really enjoy our stay in Melbourne.
The house was even better than what we had imagined. Everything in the photographs was accurate, the place was clean and just catered for our needs perfectly.
I would definitely recommend 46 Loch Street to anyone needing a comfortable place to stay, close to all amenities and very convenient to get transport into town.
I cannot commend Jayne enough for her warm welcome and hospitality. It meant that we will always have such special memories from both a wonderful Melbourne wedding and of our time seeing the city. To say Thankyou hardly seems enough - but "Thankyou" from all of us. Merry Christmas and we wish you a wonderful 2015.
