John's place makes a superb base for exploring Melbourne. We spent hours exploring Fitzroy and Carlton, and if you want to go further afield it's well-served by trams, and only a 20 minute walk into the CBD
Our bed was super comfortable and the room was large, with loads of storage. The room was right on the street but it's a quiet street and we weren't bothered by noise
There's a very well-equipped kitchen, a comfortable lounge area, with a big dining table.
Last but very definitely not least is the host himself. John must be the most friendly and helpful Airbnb host I've met (and I've met lots). As well as the usual salt pepper spices etc John provides things like bread for his guests, and there was plenty of jam, and honey from the bees on his roof, plus seemingly endless supplies of nuts, and even beer and liqueur that he encouraged us to try.
I can pretty confidently say that if you need any help while you're staying there, John will find a way of supplying it
