Phil and Pauline's place was excellent. New and hip, very large for the price, and, even though it looks far from Melbourne, it's so close to everything. It only took us 23 minutes to drive up to Queen Victoria Market and go shopping. The rental is in a very quiet neighborhood, a short 5 minute walk to the beach, a short 9 minute walk to a grocery store, and short 2 minute walk to a gas station.
The hosts were very polite and happy to help us when we needed it. They kept to themselves and responded to all communication promptly. The amenities in the rental were very thought out, convenient, and useful (such as pots and pans, Tupperware, cooking utensils) making our trip very efficient and cheap.
I highly recommend checking this place out, it was a great bargin and excellent place.
