This apartment is in a fantastic spot. Opposite the ACMI and Federation Square, the location is central and in easy walking distance of most places we wanted to visit (NGV, Bourke St Mall, etc). The apartment looked down onto Hosier Lane, one of the most famous street art alleys in Melbourne. Because of this it did get loud (especially on weekends). But, the main bedroom had double windows to minimise noise and this made a huge difference. Earplugs were provided to help too. I slept with the earplugs and did not get disturbed by noise. The second bedroom was away from windows and my friends said they didn't hear any noise at night.
We were a group of three in Melbourne for a conference. For that reason, it was important to have a comfortable living area to relax at night. The living space was brilliant. The couch was a great size and very comfy. Most apartments have tiny futons or couches that make it impossible to relax with friends. This apartment had been carefully thought out and the couch was actually one of the reasons we picked Casey's place. The apartment had a good sized tv, speakers for music, and a games cupboard with boardgames and a few books. We loved the thoughtful tips around the place and the apartment/Melbourne guide. It was lovely to have breakfast provided with some cereal, milk, juice, and the wine and chocolates were a welcome addition for our first night. We were also provided with tea, sugar, coffee.
I would recommend this apartment for young people, families, and business groups travelling to Melbourne. Casey is a great host and readily replies to messages.
