As the first guest to stay at this air bnb listing I was initially nervous with what to expect, but once I met Mariana I felt at ease with my choice and she gave me a tour of the apartment and answered all my questions. Mariana was not staying at the apartment whilst I was there, but I found her to be very nice and accommodating with my check-in and late check-out. The 3 bedroom apartment felt spacious and had a nice large balcony with views of Southwharf. Though the room I stayed in did not have any window to the outside world due to its location within the apartment, there was light from a large window into the hallway and at night I kept the hallway light on. The room has privacy due to the full length window blind, though the hallway light needed to be turned on at night if your silhouette is not to be seen by those using the hallway when your room light in on. I found the bed very comfortable and even overslept a couple of times. I stayed at Mariana's for 5 nights and it was the perfect location from which to attend my conference at the Melbourne exhibition centre (2 minutes away). It was also within easy walking distance to a couple of tram stations, the restaurants on Southwharf and Southbank and the Crown Casino. There is a small convenience store and some restuarants at the base of the apartment; I recommend the Thai place. I caught the Skybus from the airport into the city and walked from Southern Cross station as it was only 10 minutes away. The apartment is in a very safe location, and has nice facilities such as a gym and pool. Mariana's housemates were very nice and helpful, though were moving in a couple of weeks. Overall it was an excellent apartment, in a perfect position to explore the city and I found the apartment to be modern, clean and quiet.
