As a born and Bred Melburnian, not to mention a long time and frequent airbnb user, I have to say I was really impressed with Stephanie's apartment. I stayed just over 2 months, and I felt like I was on holiday even though the apartment is only about 3km from the CBD. Its really a little oasis. The facilities in the complex are superb, and I spent a lot of time in the pool/spa and sunbaking, and also made use of the gym. The two cafes in the complex are both great for coffee/breakfast/lunch, and having the Vic Gardens shopping centre across the road is very handy. I really enjoyed riding my bike on the yarra trail which is so green and peaceful and literally at the foot of the complex.
Inside the apartment was very comfortable. One major positive was that I never heard any noise from the neighbours - very quiet. The bed was super comfortable, and the kitchen and eating/entertainment area was very functional. Netflix and internet worked a treat, and one last bonus was the courtyard and outdoor shared garden connected to the apartment. All I can say is, I hope this place is available next time I decide to come home!
