Jo and Stefan are lovely people, so welcoming and friendly, and at ease with visitors in their home, which is modern, clean and beautiful. There are a lot of little extras, like tissues, shampoo, bodywash etc provided. The bed is so comfortable you won't want to get out of it. The location is across from the beach and is a 6-10 minute walk on a slight downhill incline from the railway station (and cafes, shops). Parkdale is an easy and cheap 40 minute train ride from Melbourne CBD. I was so pleased to find this place and recommend it to anyone else visiting the area - much more pleasant and better value than a hotel.
