This place is in an older building in St Kilda East. It had an “old house” smell on arrival, and the carpet was not clean and very used. Some key items in the kitchen were missing. Our son has a pet hair allergy, and developed a skin rash from sleeping in the bed. I am allergic to house dust mites, and developed allergy symptoms after a few days. Multiple areas of the apartment were not cleaned to a standard (e.g. window sill in bathroom full of old dust).
The local team did a good job in responding quickly, and tried to resolve the situation as much as possible, but the damage was done - we moved out much faster than we had originally planned, and were relieved when we were out of the place.
I would not recommend this place to families or older travelers under any circumstance. I would recommend this for students on a budget that are not allergic to pet hair or dust, and can split the price for a three bed-room. The location is not bad, with beach and city reachable via public transport.
