Marlene’s place is awesomely convenient to public transports, which you can easily take to the cbd (or you can also walk it, which takes about 20-30mins to flinders st) and to south yarra and St Kilda. There are restaurants of different cuisines across the apartment if you’re too lzy to head out. Being in South Melbourne also means there are way too many choices of cafe, restaurants and also the South Melbourne market.
If you like the morning run or the greens, then the botanic garden is within 5-10 minutes walking distance.
Marlene is a nice hosts and she also prepared list of places to go to in the area.
She also prepared shower amenities, towels, cereals and tea for breakfast.
Overall, my stay has been great.
Thanks Marlene!
