We had the pleasure of staying at the what can only be described as an unexpected gem in the heart of Footscray. The Forge is a great place to spend the day during the weekend, and come home to on a weeknight. Hidden away from the world by large factory gates, the entire space was perfectly designed for its location. The heated floor masked a very cold few days outside. The blinds did a great job blocking out the light; great for napping during the day and sleep-ins through the morning. The theatre and speaker system were great for jamming to beats and watching videos on the Chromecast. Matthew and Genevieve were prompt, helpful and a general pleasure to talk to when required. They were amazing hosts, providing tea, fresh coffee, milk and a range of breakfast foods, well beyond our expectations! We will definitely return sooner rather than later!
