Our stay at Pete’s place restored my faith in AirBNB (which slowly seems to be taken over by commercial companies looking to make a quick fortune). The place itself isn’t fairly large, but everything is extremely well designed and stylish. The kitchen is amazing and stuffed with designer appliances. The shower, living room and balcony are equally great and you can find Sonos throughout the house. But the real gem is the location, which is smack in the middle of hip & happening Fitzroy and within bike and walking distance of the CBD. Our top picks are Belles Chicken, Gabriel for brunch, HuTong (best dumplings ever!), Cutler & Co (fine dining) and Hochi Mama. And whatever you do, the croissants at Lune are to die for! Also give the Skydeck a go and rent a bike for $3 per day with Melbourne Bike Share and take a trip to St. Kilda on a sunny day. The only minor drawback about Pete’s place is that the bedroom is not really light- and soundproof, although he really did his best to accommodate. So if you are a light sleeper (like me) you might need some earplugs (even provided by Pete). That put aside communication with Pete before and during our stay was great and although he was traveling himself, check-in was well arranged. Would definitely stay again and recommend it to other travellers!
