Lesley was a lovely host and helped us out in a number of ways including date flexibility when we suffered a bereavement and then offering support with some essential supplies when the Coronavirus panic buying set in.
We thoroughly enjoyed our, unfortunately cut short, time in St Kilda and enjoyed starting and finishing each day with a coffee on the balcony watching the trams go by.
We would also recommend the Derby Thai, literally 60 metres away, which served lovely food at very low prices by Australian restaurant standards.
