Rod and Ash are fantastic hosts who shared with me such a wonderful apartment in the centre of Melbourne. Not only was it spotless, it was in a very accessible location to many sightseeing spots (free tram zone so no even need to pay for transport). To me, there are several PLUS besides on the listing:
1) It has a superb view overseeing the Royal Exhibition Building, which is famous for its difficulty for entry booking. I managed to get on it and look at the marvelous view of Melbourne from a height. Rod's room is even more gorgeous, as u r at a greater height and u can look into a further distance. The view of Royal Exhibition Building from the room night and day is definitely unforgettable.
2) You have your independent toilet from your host. Even in rare occasions they have guests, it is basically 99% your own use!
Thanks so much Rod and Ash for the wonderful stay, the millions of advice (for sightseeing Melbourne) and accommodating my schedule with flexible check in and out!
