Fantastic location across from the MCG. Located close to Richmond Station (train) and the tram network plus an easy walk to a multitude of great pubs, restaurants, cafes and supermarkets. The walk into the city was an easy flat, 30 minute walk through parkland and designated pedestrian walkways. The Stables is tucked behind the hosts house and is accessible through a rear gate, off a suburban alley/street. The Stables have been converted beautifully & the main sleeping area has quiet air conditioning for cooling/heating. The bathroom is ultra modern with a lovely shower. There’s a small fridge which we found useful. We loved meeting the friendly family dogs (which live inside) whom visit the shared backyard occasionally with the owners. We found The Stables quiet at night, especially considering the property is located close to a busy main road. The traffic noise never bothered us at all. Ione was a pleasure to deal with. We found communication to be prompt and helpful. I would highly recommend The Stables to couples wanting on-trend accomodation and facilities, in a hip part of Melbourne. We will definitely re-book on our next trip to Melbourne.
