We really loved our stay at Guy's place. The unit is exactly as in the photos. It's very modern and well appointed. We had everything we could need to call it a home. The kitchen is very well appointed with everything you would expect to find at home (not just the bare minimum as at some holiday apartments). We also appreciated the washing machine and dryer since we were staying with a 7 month old baby. Great extra was also the small office / working space on the second floor. That was excellent for getting things done on the computer and sitting down to do some calls. And even though it's their private home, they have cleared all the drawers, cupboards etc. So we had a lot of space to put our clothes and other stuff to. All in all extremely pleasant stay and we felt right at home. Cons (there are always minor cons and it wouldn't be a credible review without any cons): - To most Europeans it will come as a surprise that the building quality in Australia (as in the UK as well) is just like building houses from cardboard. This means that nothing is really tight. If it's hot or cold outside it will also be hot or cold inside. However this was easily handled with the A/C. But this also means that you can hear everything through the walls and windows. At first we were several times shocked that someone just came in to the apartment when the neighbours where coming or leaving. Or we could hear everything to the last word when people we speaking two stories below on the street. That's no blame to Guy or to the apartment. But definitely a minor con and worth mentioning. - Another minor con was the Private hotel Gatwick just opposite of the entrance. It's actually not a hotel but a half-way house for homeless people, drunks and drug addicts etc. This meant that every evening there was a food distribution stall (from the church or such) opposite of the building entrance. We saw police every day and on some days also the ambulance. Also the 2-3 blocks in the vicinity is filled with beggars and people that are in general less fortunate. We never felt unsafe or saw anything bad happen. If there was something, they were arguing among themselves. Occasionally we were approach with some people asking for coins or small change. Back to some positive sides about the area. It's a short walk to the beach and St Kilda Esplanade. We were there almost every day. You also have a lot of restaurants and bars nearby. The location is excellent especially for singles and couples without children in their 20-30s since there's a lot of nightlife and entertainment. It was really good for us too but just saying that it would be even better without children. We would have probably tried also more of the restaurant and some of the bars (which...
