We had a wonderful time at Alex's apartment during our stay in Melbourne. The place is really big, clean and well equipped. The shower is amazing ! Alex also provided us food for breakfast as well as a nice surprise when we arrived.
We didn't meet him but the communication was excellent.
From there you can easily walk to Collingwood and Fitzroy (so cool, very trendy !) and we even kept on walking until downtown which is not so far.
We would definitely recommend this place ! Thanks Alex
