Shanti's apartment is one of the best apartment my friends and I have ever stayed in. Located in St Kilda, this apartment is in close proximity to St Kilda beach (little penguins) and is not too far away from Brighton beach and Queen Victoria Market. We were especially grateful to the free parking provided by Shanti as the parking in Australia is very expensive.

The beds provided were comfortable (though the pillows were flat) and we love the toilet located on the third floor. There were two sinks/shower taps and Shanti took the effort to provide extra hand towels as well as hand soap for the guests. However, it will be great if the toilet located at the first floor allows one to shower too. But we were very thankful of the washing machine and dryer provided. Though it seems like the dryer was having a little bit of problem drying our clothes.

The kitchen was very well-equipped, with clean and new kitchenware. Too bad we didn't have time to cook and could only make use of the microwave.

The heater was excellent too as it kept the entire second floor warm and cosy. However, the first floor was too cold though. It will be excellent if there is a small heater?

Overall, we enjoyed our stay in Melbourne thanks to Shanti. His apartment is definitely the choice for all and is value for money. We will definitely recommend him to those who intend to go to Melbourne.
