I had a fantastic stay at Lasanthi's place. Her place was spotlessly clean and extremely spacious. In addition to the bedroom, bathroom + toilet, she also offered a deskspace in another room that I could use. They have a 5GHz wifi network and the place is located outside the CBD but very conveniently reachable via a direct bus or tram. There is also gated and secured parking space so I did not need to worry about finding space to park my car.
She and her husband had gone out of their way to ensure that I had a great Melbourne experience. They spent time with me everyday to discuss what I wanted to do vs what I should do the next day and provided me with tips and suggestions. They were also flexible and very understanding with in and out times as traveling to the phillip islands and great ocean road meant leaving really early in the morning or arriving home very late. They ensured I was well fed: for days that I had to leave early, they packed me breakfast with so much food I could not finish; on days I stayed in, they made me a hot breakfast made to perfection. I only have good things to say about my stay and I encourage everyone to stay at Lasanthi's place for a 5-star experience :)
