David's place is the perfect spot to explore Melbourne.. Collingwood is a fantastic area, so many fun shops, cafes and bars!! The room was lovely and spacious, great bathroom and a very comfy bed too. We were also super impressed with how David apologetically dealt with some noise that arose from some temporary building work they were having done on the house, offering to refund us some money for all three nights we were there and even giving us a lovely bottle of wine. This more than offset the temporary inconvenience suffered and was obviously an unexpected event for them too. They are great hosts and we loved the room and the area. South of Johnston or 'sojo' across the road is awesome for brunch and naked in the sky bar is amazing for drinks at sunset and a view of Melbourne. We'd definitely recommend and stay again!
