We stayed at Neil's Kensington apartment for only one night, but it would have been very suitable for a longer stay. Both Neil and Carolina we're welcoming and helpful. We were granted an early check in, and they were both very forthcoming with their knowledge of the local area, in particular the local eateries and the trains to and from the city. If you don't want to take a train (8 mins. walk to the station), a taxi is about $15. The apartment itself and its setting is contemporary. It's very different from the outside too, I actually had to ask the taxi driver to wait while I checked we had the right place. I'm pleased we did. Geographically the apartment is close to the city, and on the right side of Melbourne for a taxi to the airport. We had a very comfortable and quiet night's sleep in the king size bed and made our own cup of plunger coffee with everything supplied. We would happily stay there again.
