It was a pleasure to stay in this apartment. I was surprised at how many amenities it had - I had everything I needed and was incredibly comfortable. It stayed warm on cool nights, the bed was comfortable, and the shower was perfect.
I had trouble with the main gate to the apartment complex during my stay, which was out of Susan’s control as a host - but she was very accomodating and so were her neighbours. The complex as a whole felt quite communal and friendly, but still very safe and private where needed.
Walking to get groceries and to public transportation was all very easy, the location had everything you’d ever need. Close enough to St Kilda culture and nightlife while still being quiet and relaxed.
I’d absolutely recommend staying here, especially if you’re looking at a more longterm stay (a few weeks) like I was.
