From the moment I first had contact with Kathryn I felt comfortable. She was prompt and friendly in all communications and gave detailed information which made finding the apartment easy and outlined what we could expect. The bedroom is large and exactly as it appears in the photo, the bed is very comfortable, the bathroom sparkling (with sensational water heat and pressure), a well appointed kitchen and the view is absolutely spectacular!! Kathryn's dining table is really beautiful and fascinating, too. It is glass-topped, with hundreds of photos of the of the richness of friendships and experiences that have filled her life so far.
Kathryn's delightful sister, Ann-maree, greeted us, and we felt immediately at home (I could tell from the red kitchen appliances and doggy draught stopper that Kathryn was someone we would "click" with!). There is some "city hum", but as a couple of country bumpkins we didn't find it bad and managed to sleep through it without issue. We were very grateful to also have access to the secure carpark for our stay (included in the cost). The location was ideal as we were 5 mins from MCEC where we were attending a conference. An IGA less than 100m away.....what more could you want??!! This is our first experience with Airbnb and we were thrilled! We will definitely be booking to stay with Kathryn again when next we visit Melbourne!
