Immaculate, light, bright and well set up for short or longer stay, and a real treat to experience the classic Cairo building. Makes you feel like you're living in Melbourne, not merely visiting.

Location is ideal, a short stroll to Gertrude and Brunswick Streets and easy, pleasant walk to CBD. Private, sunny courtyard is a real plus.

Peter is an affable host, there to meet you on arrival and explain all you need to know about this cleverly designed and comfortable space.

I look forward to returning. A great choice, especially on what was Grand Prix weekend when hotels were charging extortionate prices for much less interesting and well located accommodation.

As Peter will no doubt explain, Star Shuttle will take you to and from the door for $15 each way, which is also convenient.
