I had a very good stay at Jo-Anne's apartment, it's comfortable, nicely appointed and with everything needed for a solo traveller or a couple. Excellent location in a quiet area, yet close to the beach, to Bay St with all its restaurants and cafés. There are convenience stores and supermarkets within walking distance. The 109 tram is just a 10 min walk, as is the 234 bus going to CBD. Very comfi bed, and really nice to have Netflix. Wi-fi was fast and reliable. I enjoyed the pool and hot tub in the adjoining Bayview complex (reachable through the parking) - it was mostly empty every day!
I am specially grateful to Jo-Anne and her husband for being so helpful on my last day as I forgot my passport at the apartment and they helped me retrieve it in time for my flight!
