A truly unique place to stay right in the heart of all things Melbourne CBD laneway action. Travelers that value a place with local character, both in an outside of their rented space, will love this. It is the antidote to the "same-as-the-next" hotel rooms and rentals that are so sterile.
This home is a lived-in but low-clutter space--a huge, repurposed warehouse with some industrial fixtures (winches, etc.) still in situ. Where else do you get a 20 foot ceiling in your huge rainforest bath? Super comfortable place to curl up with a good book or glass of wine gazing at the two faces of the colorfully lit GPO clocktower outside the huge windows.
Alas, you may not spend long in it as it is in the middle of where you want to be--mere moments from ace cafes, restaurants (city's best pasta joint; great ramen, dumplings) and bars.
Michelle is an A+ host. Super responsive, she was generously flexible re check-in. And as a travel publisher in her own right, she has her finger on the pulse of what's hot. Every one of her food and drink recommendations was a winner! (Read her online rec's and her newly published eat and drink "card sets." Recommended without hesitation to those who want a best-of-Melbourne-laneways experience. Would return in a heartbeat.
