I was looking for comfortable accommodation in a quiet neighbourhood with easy access to the city centre and I’m really happy that I went with this place.
It was clean and nicely renovated with all the modern amenities for a comfortable stay so I was happy that it did feel like a home. The bed was comfortable and the place quiet for me to get a good night sleep.
Daniel was a great host, easy to deal with and answered my questions quickly. There is a blutooth lock on the front door, which I hadn’t used before, but it worked well and I actually found that it improved my stay because I didn’t have to worry about keeping a house key when I left the home.
This is a leafy residential neighbourhood and I felt safe exploring the area on foot. There are lovely streetscapes and houses, bicycle or walking tracks and nearby parks. The best part was that it doesn’t feel developed or overcrowded like some other parts of Melbourne I have stayed in.
I walked about 10 minutes to Mailing Road, where I found a quaint shopping and food strip, a real hidden gem and a setting that felt like traditional suburban Melbourne. I also found some other nearby cafes serving quality coffee and food. I travelled into the city centre by train – from the home it is a short walk to Surry Hills train station and then 20 minutes into the city centre.
I'd stay here again, highly recommend
