I’m so pleased we (2 couples) chose “Queen Bea” in Northcote as our accommodation for our visit to Melbourne. Firstly the location is terrific, not far from the Hume Highway and also wonderful access to the city by tram, either along High Street or St George’s Road. The house offers 2 spacious bedrooms (all beds comfortable) and a large, airy bathroom/laundry with great roomy shower. The lounge/dining and kitchen area is light with large windows that visually take you outside. We enjoyed a bbq in the back courtyard, under the fig and apple trees. The courtyard is a lovely asset.
The kitchen facilities were perfect for us. There’s plenty of crockery, cutlery, glassware, cookware, a mixer, a choice of coffee plungers, a microwave oven, gas range and large fridge with some complimentary supplies.
The TV, the ceiling fans, the air conditioner all worked with no fuss! We were pleased about that, because one day reached 45 degrees and was still in the 30’s over night. We were thankful for the fans and aircon.
We loved the keyless entry, where the pin number was one familiar to us (part of a personal phone number).
The hosts were exemplary at communication as they courteously always replied within a few minutes. I’m sure you’ll enjoy staying there. I also hope “Queen Bea” is available to stay in for our next visit to Melbourne!
