From first contact through to leaving the property on the final day, Cathy was an excellent host. Upon learning I was arriving early on a flight she allowed me to have the keys ahead of the normal 'check in' time, which made life a lot easier for me. When I had a slight problem with the TV, she came straight over to help out, and was very quick to respond to any questions I had.

The property itself is an older, cottage-style house, in the fantastic South Melbourne suburb of Albert Park. Located a couple of minutes walk from light rail, trams and buses, it's ideal for getting in to the city or out to other suburbs. Even better though, it's a 5 minute walk to both the main centre of Albert Park (Bridport Street), to the centre of South Melbourne (Clarendon Street), to the Beach (Bayside) and to Albert Park lake itself.

The garden is beautiful, the bed comfortable, and it has everything you could want for a stay in Melbourne.

We'll definitely be back!
