My brother and me stayed at Dorothy's place for two nights and it has been a wonderful experience. She is very nice and caring and always up to a nice chat. You can tell she is really interested in her guests. Even though we missed our flight to Melbourne and arrived insanely late, she was very welcoming.
Her apartment is just beautiful, very clean and beautifully decorated. The bedroom we stayed in had a comfy bed and at night it was very quiet. We had our private bathroom, which was very clean as well.
The location is great, the beach is just across the street, you can see it from the living room. We paid roughly 25 AUD for a taxi from southern cross station, but there is also public transportation available close by.
I would absolutely recommend to stay at her place. Thanks again for having us!
