From memory all of the previous reviews have pretty much got it all right.
There are some wrong places to stay in Melbourne, but there are also several 'right' ones and this is definitely one of the 'right' ones. Its very central, uber Melbourne laneway grunge, with Collins Street around the corner and China town back up the street.
The place is fabulous and if you are looking at this apartment seriously it is because a certain style attracts you .... and you won't be disappointed, in fact you will probably find that it exceeds what you expect. The facilities and amenities are terrific and if you need something, it's there somewhere. Whilst it's is indulgently large, it would be a very cool place to work out of on business. Very central to all relevant parts of the city and great home work spaces.
Michelle is terrific, and as she publishes comprehensive (and cool) guides to both restaurants and bars, more useful than you might imagine.
I'm coming back, and I'm not easily pleased.
