Kristie is a lovely host and her place a great choice to base yourself while in Melbourne.
The best part? A 5-minute walk takes you to the nearest tram stop along Lygon Street for a 15-minute ride to the city. No fuss which is great after a long day out.
Around the neighbourhood along Lygon Street, Sydney Road and nearby is a selection of really cool restaurants, bars, pubs and cafes to hang out at, earning Brunswick a reputation for being an up and coming hangout for a trendy crowd. Kristie has put together an awesome list which really served us well throughout our stay. :)
Misaki is a sweetheart and Kristie herself is wonderful, helpful and super friendly. She's flexible about check-in and check-out timings so you won't have to worry. While you're there, she gives you free access to her kitchen and collection of teas, cereals and fruit.
Highly recommended for a comfortable stay!
