Peter was easy to communicate with, very welcoming and let us check in a little early. He showed us around the studio and talked about the local area, giving us tram timetables. We stayed at the studio for 4 nights, eating in most nights as we spent all day exploring. The studio is close to 3 tram lines, one taking you straight to St Kilda. The city is an easy 20 minute walk and the free tram zone only 2 stops away so you don't always need to use the guest MyKi cards. Fitzroy is a great base - great cafes and shops. The kitchen is extremely well equipped and has everything you need for a short stay. There are 3 stores/supermarkets within a 10-15 minute walk. The studio was clean and warm and although small, perfectly adequate for 2 people. I would love to return to Melbourne and stay at Peter's again.
