We had a really positive experience. Damien (the host) was quick to respond and accommodating to our changing needs. We had a couple of last minute requests and Damien would go the extra mile to assist us.

Location-wise, the apartment is within walking distance to trams and train station. East Melbourne is adjacent to Richmond, which offers plenty of restaurant options. It's also within walking distance to Carlton Gardens and Fitzroy Gardens, in which my wife and I had many late night walks catching Pokemon.

The apartment was clean and neat, exactly as described. It had everything you would need as a tourist. Would definitely recommend this apartment.
