This was my launching pad to explore Melbourne. It's really near to Fitzroy, with all the bars and restaurants and cafes. It's a ground floor apartment BUT on a very quiet street, so I slept well. The hosts also provide some necessities like bottled water, milk, chocs. I thought that was a nice touch. Short walk to get to Melbourne museum, and about 40min walk to Bourke Street. Yes I walked because there's interesting stores along the way!
