Staying in Marcus apartment proved to be a great decision.
As we (2 students) were staying for 2 months in Melbourne, we needed an apartment to feel at home in.
For us a nice kitchen and two separated rooms were therefore crucial and Marcus apartment features both.
Next to the bedroom, one of us could sleep on a mattress in the living room.
The Kitchen was very useful and well-equipped.
Marcus was very helpful and gave us some good recommendations for this neighbourhood. At the beginning we very facing a bit of difficulty with the internet connection, but Marcus helped us in settling it.
The location is perfect as it is very close to St. Kilda beach as one of main locations in Melbourne. With a great seaside, a lot of shops and cafes is the area also the starting point for a lot of arranged tours to attractions around Melbourne.
To get to Flinders Street ( as the main conncetion hubs of Melbourne ) you can easily take the train from Ripponlea and so the city center is within good reach.
So we spent quite some time in Marcus apartment and we enjoyed it a lot.
If you are looking for a nice and affordable apartment in Melbourne, we can highly recommend this one.
