The apartment is located above the main highway strip if you have low noise tolerance this may be irritating to you but for us it was fine with the door close and you are moderately high. The views are so so as there is/was construction happening through both windows which is out of the host's control ofcourse but something to note. There definitely is an odor in the room and scuffs along the wall, location wise I quite enjoyed you are in walkable distance to south Melbourne market, metro woolies, crown casino and maccas.
