The apartment was as described. It is in a great location, and worked well for a long term stay. The host had made sure to stock up the place with great amenities upon move-in, and the apartment was, for the most part, clean. The host was easy to
communicate with and responded quickly. The apartment itself was quite worn, but the host mentioned that he will be renovating it. All in all it is decent value for money in a great location, but the state that the apartment was in made it only a 4/5 star experience. It works if you are looking for a long term stay, but it would not be the best place for a shorter visit to Melbourne.
