In this day and age where “customer service” is a pale shadow of itself, our experience at Oikas was startlingly good. We were caught in lockdown Melbourne, in uncomfortable accommodation, when we asked Oikas hosts Tessa and David to find room for us. They literally prepared the place immediately and warmly welcomed us for what turned into an extended stay. This is no basic accommodation - this is an architect designed 1 bed granny flat, stocked with personal touches like flowers, coffee, cooking supplies, toiletries and modern crockery and appliances. Located in a quiet street in Coburg, with shops, good coffee and transport, all within walking distance. Within our 5km bubble we enjoyed walks to close by parks and nature settings. We cannot recommend Oikas highly enough. We will definitely return.
