Georgette met us and provided us the key, even though we were checking in a little early. The apartment was being cleaned, but we were able to leave our luggage and go out. Georgette also provided basic food items - bread, milk, lots of bottled water (but Melbourne water is fine to drink) and more.

The apartment itself is terrific, but the best thing is the location. Fantastic!! One street from Melbourne University and one street from the Lygon St area of restaurants, pubs, gelato outlets, etc., etc. Very close to the CBD as well.

The apartment was well equipped, very roomy, and comfortable. The wifi worked great. The TV was large and great to watch, although we didn't get SBS (Australian international channel) on it. The only downside was that you had to climb three flights of stairs, but the stairs were easy and comfortable. There were also very nice views both out the front and from the large balcony/patio out the back.
