Donna welcomed us to her lovely apartment with open arms. She was there at the promised time and took us up to the apartment for a tour and explanation of how things operated. Once that was done she showed us some of the best places for coffee, alcohol and food in the surrounding laneways.

The apartment is gorgeous and located so centrally it's impossible to beat. It's in a wonderful building in Swanston Street - the street itself is primarily used by trams and the occasional horse-drawn carriage. Because of the lack of car access, our taxi had to drop us off at a nearby corner but it was only about a 50m walk to the apartment.

It has private access so everything is very secure. The apartment itself has a long kitchen area - well appointed and stocked - then a lounge/dining space with large windows overlooking the Town Hall. There's also a bedroom with a good sized bed an finally a bathroom with shower and a washing machine hidden away.

Wifi is available and it's very quick.

The key drop-off is easy.

The location of this nicely decorated apartment is superb. I recommend it as a great place to stay - no hesitation.
