Staying at Amanda's flat was simply tranquil and we rest perfectly, despite her flat is right next to the main road. The flat is around 15 minutes by car from the Southern Cross station, heard you can use tram too. It's a nice neighborhood with many delish choices of coffee shops and diners. Check in was easy and check out was even more. Amanda was very kind for attending to our queries and allowing us to borrow her bikes. All in all, top experience and would recommend for those who want to enjoy another side of Melbourne, Brunswick!
