I was fortunate enough to have the chance to stay at Sophie's place (Work Sleep Live) during the time that I first came to Melbourne. It was totally beyond my expectation. Sophie is a super nice person. Whenever I was in doubt about anything related to the city and the country, she always tried to help me and gave me a lot of useful information. The place itself is very new and clean. It even has two terraces where you can sit and chill while listening to the birds. It looks exactly in the photos with many high-tech facilities and a HUGE TV (with Netflix) in each room. North Melbourne is a historical area which has lots of restaurants and pubs. It's pretty easy to travel around. Just need to walk 5 mins to the nearest tram stop which will take only a few mins to the city center and tourist spots.
One more good thing about the place is that you can meet lots of nice people from many countries as well. The atmosphere made me feel like a home that far from home. Thank you so much for hosting me and for your exceptional hospitality, Sophie. I truly appreciate it :)
