David's apartment was the last apartment that we stayed in Melbourne before we headed back home. It was a lovely place to stay. We came down from Grampians and had to check in late. David checked in on us on the time that we were checking in and when we informed him that it was going to be late, he arranged for the hotel reception to assist us with the check in (the penthouse is located in the same building as a hotel). A lovely staff helped us. The check in process was smooth and fuss-free.
The apartment was very clean and big. A big plus point was every bedroom had an ensuite bathroom, which is very rare.
We had a concern about one of the bathrooms, which had a massive window with no blinds. When we contacted David, he took the call despite it being late at night and assured us that no one could look in through the window. For those who are more conservative and private, you may want to take this into consideration. For our group, it was just a matter of reshuffling the use of the bathrooms such that the ladies used the bathrooms where there were no windows.
Parking is available for people who stay in the penthouse. There are two reserved lots which guarantee you a parking space. The entrance into the parking lot was however extremely small and narrow. We drove a Kia Carnival and could barely fit in (had to fold in the side mirrors). In the end we found it easier to enter by the exit via Simpson St. If your car is a smaller sedan than you should have no problem.
All in all it was a lovely place to stay to mark the end of our trip.
