Marlene and Marty are great hosts. They were very friendly and had been very nice to me. Marlene surely makes very nice food. The place itself is very comfortable, clean, beautifully set up and a has a very nice view of Melbourne skyline. I spent 3 weeks and felt absolutely at ease as if it was my home. The overall location is also great in terms of restaurants, public transport and access to city center. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I strongly recommend anyone visiting Melbourne for a short trip to stay at this place.
