The apartment and its surroundings were as described!! It's a (very, very) short walk to the tram stop, or a (slightly) longer walk (if you like walking, which i do, especially in winter) to Flinder's Station, and we're just a couple of stops from the city.

The apartment is cozy, a good size for one (or two), and has pretty much everything you'd need for a comfortable stay. The bed and the sofa are EXTREMELY comfortable and I'd love to have them in my own home (though i may never leave either piece of furniture if i did), and the kitchen area, though compact, is pretty fully-equipped.

I enjoyed my time in Melbourne, and living in Ben's apartment made me feel like a local :)

I also appreciated them checking in and making sure I was settled in all right. Thank you for an enjoyable, comfortable and fuss-free stay!!
