Ian and Marie are truly superhosts and their bungalow made me feel as though I was home. They went above and beyond in what I was expecting from a host. Minutes walk to the bus with a short ride to the train taking you right into the city for exploring or business. Shops close by for an excellent meat pie or a wide variety of ethnic foods. The yard is immaculate with huge roses and the sounds of birds aplenty. If I'm ever able to make it back to Melbourne, this would surely be the place I'd check first. As mentioned in the description you can have as much or as little to do with Ian as you want but I'd truly recommend having a conversation with him as he's what made my stay in Melbourne special. Thanks so much!
