I had a wonderful stay here for 4 weeks as I was traveling to Melbourne for work. I much preferred this arrangement vs. a hotel. I felt like I was coming home each night to my space to unwind. I was a female solo traveler and felt safe in this apartment. Any slight issues, as soon as I reached out to the host, they responded immediately so that was really appreciated. The apartment was clean and had tasteful touches - I absolutely adored the in unit washer dryer which was a luxury to me, the cordless Dyson for cleaning up after my hair, the hot water maker, and the balcony views from the 30th floor. I highly recommend this apartment and would consider rebooking if I ever find myself in Melbourne again.
Regarding the smells referenced in other reviews, I just want to clarify that the smells are likely the smells of Chinese spicy hot from the restaurant on the ground floor of the highrise building. The apartment had no smells but the smells of the restaurant do go up the rubbish chute and are in the main lobby entrance when you throw away garbage so that's something to consider if you are sensitive to these smells.
