Clean modern apartment close to shops and transport.
There was some noise from opposite flats but all noise stopped before midnight every night. No noise from neighbors in apartment building.
My following info is for older people or those with disabilities :
Wheelchair access is only available from basement carpark. You can use lift to access the hallway to apartment.
Entering from front of building there are approx (sorry forgot to write down figures) 5 steepish steps (no handrail) to door that opens into hallway with apartment at the end.
If you acess apartment from side lane there are 3 steps to door (no handrail) entering door you have another 8 (approx ) steps (with handrail) to door that opens into hallway.
Taking a slow walk is is only 4 minutes walk to start of shops and eateries in Acland Street. It is about 7 minutes slow walk to Woolworths supermarket which is set back a little in Arcade in Acland Street.
It is approx 5 minutes walk to trams. They come every 10 minutes and take you straight to the city or other destinations.
There is now a Skybus that picks you up at the airport and drives you directly to St Kilda. We took it back to the airport. We walked to the Novotal Hotel which is about a 6 minute walk from the apartment
We enjoyed our holiday in the apartment. It is near shops and transport. Hint if you are on a diet do not walk down Acland Street as it has the most amazing cake shops we have ever seen.
