Jess welcomed us and was flexible about our situation in which we arrived a lot earlier than planned! She was pleasant, showed us the basics of her cosy unit and then left us to it. We really did make it home! We mainly ate in and found the "stock" left such as olive oil etc really handy. The bath was so useful for soaking in after a hard day at the velodrome nationals! Brunswick...what can we say...has always been a bustling interesting, cosmopolitan locale. We enjoyed the local restaurants as well as the ease of nipping down to the IGA Express local supermarket for all the necessities.
Overall, this is a great place to call home for a stay in Melbourne and Jess is an excellent host.
