I joined Airbnb because of an emergency with a temporary accommodation in Melbourne and needed to quickly to find a place to stay. Megan's place was close by and reasonably priced so I decided to reserve.
She soon accepted after requesting to see more of my profile. Before checking in, she had a minor accident at her apartment and was kind to ask me how I feel about it. She even offered to refund a portion of the daily rate.
The room is clean and it's just as advertised. The scifi theme was a nice touch you won't find in a regular hotel. A train station and a tram stop with a direct line to the Melbourne CBD is close by so even if it's not in the middle of the city it's really easy to get there.
The apartment is on the third floor, so probably someone carrying a lot of baggage wouldn't love carrying it up the stairs. That's the only downer I could think of. Apart from that the apartment is in a quiet and lovely neighbourhood and all in all I had a good stay with a great host and a good room. She even cooked a mean lentil soup while I was there, so that was definitely a plus!
