Susan’s place was absolutely perfect for me and my partner during the first month of us moving over from the UK to Australia. It was full of homely touches - the kitchen had every pot, pan and utensil you could ever need, and there were even a selection of teas to drink and herbs you could use for cooking (which we didn’t do much of as we had a world of restaurants and bars on our doorstep). It’s just off chapel street, close enough to enjoy all it has to offer, but far away enough that the noise doesn’t bother you on a quiet night in.
It’s about a 5 minute walk to the train station/plenty of tram stops around to get you from place to place. The apartment felt really safe and was spotlessly clean on arrival and Susan also arranged for us to have a turnover service each week of the 4 that we stayed. There was also a massive smart TV, offering all of the usual apps like Netflix/Stan/Disney+ if you have an account to login.
Would highly recommend this place for short, (but especially) long term stays. Susan is clearly a very experienced host, check in and check out was seamless and she was always contactable via email if we needed anything. Thank you so much!!
