The cottage was fantastic and just perfect for our stay. It's walking distance to almost all the great cafes, restaurants, and the beach in St Kilda, plus relatively easy access to a few tram lines into town and other parts of Melbourne. It's big enough to have plenty of room, with a great living space and two good sized bedrooms. There were two of us travelling, and each of us had our own space but enjoyed having the shared living space. The cottage is really well equipped and in great shape--much better than a few other places I've stayed in. Even better though are the hosts. Jan was very responsive, helpful, and lovely. When we first arrived, I went to iron a shirt for my next day's meetings and the iron fell out of the cupboard and shattered. Jan went out of the way to bring round a new one within an hour. He was very quick to respond to any queries during our stay. And when I went to leave and found my hire car battery had died, he very helpfully came over with jumper leads to help get me going again. A lifesaver! In summary, I can't recommend this place enough. Comfortable, pleasant, great urban neighbourhood location.
