Sam was a very responsive and helpful host and the location was great no complaints - however the apartment was noisy (other residents) at night.
There was a smell in the carpeted room (main room) that was of cat urine. The tap in the kitchen was broken and had a cloth and tape wrapped around it to stop the water spurting out when on or off.
There were no dishwashing items for the dishwasher.
Whilst Sam did offer 40.00 refund - he did request only a 5 star review and not to place one that indicated the issues. Given I choose places on ratings and comments - I did not feel this was right as the money we paid for two nights was significant given the cricket and time of year. The tap being broken I would have dealt with but the cat urine smell in the main bedroom was not ok. It was a shame as it was a family time with my son’s family with three grandchildren - we had a great time in Melbourne - just the nights were not as restful due the condition /smell - that we would have liked.
