Amazing stay and I would recommend again. First off, let me list the cons.
Cons:
No Air Conditioning! For a hot Melbourne summer the fans were not enough. I left the windows open and the streets were loud which made it hard to sleep. Thank goodness most of my days here were not that hot (except for 1 day) so I was able to enjoy most of the stay. Granted, I should've read ALL the reviews which 1 or 2 people stated there was no AC, I only assumed there was because it is Melbourne; a world first class city. I would suggest Alex list NO AC on his listing so there is no surprise in the future.
Pros:
Everything else! Perfect location, perfect amenities, expresso machine, views, ease of getting in/out of building, amazing host. Alex gave us a small tour of the apt when we arrived and communicated very efficiently through the app.
The apt is very large; big living room, good size bedroom and bathroom. There is a washer and dryer as well.
I would highly recommend this place and would stay here again as long as I know the weather is going to be nice.
