Geri's apartment in the St. Kilda district is beautiful. She has thought of everything to make your stay comfortable. There are 2 MYKI cards which you can load and use (leave them for the next guests) and a small but accommodating kitchen if you wish to prepare your own meals. It is right across the street from the tram stop which goes downtown past the Arts District. Only a few blocks walk in the other direction to the beach. We were there during Moomba week and because St. Kilda is a popular night "party" destination, it was very noisy. If lively neighborhoods are not your first choice, you might have trouble falling asleep but it's probably more quiet on non-holiday weekends. On the other hand, the liveliness means lots of restaurants and an interesting neighborhood. We would return to Geri's if ever in Melbourne again.
