Kim's house is absolutely perfect! I would love to stay there again when I visit Melbourne. There are heaps of public transport options within 10min walk north and south of the house that will take you into the city. Victoria Gardens, a lovely small shopping complex is only 10min walk also that will have everything that you need for either short or long term stays (also has a Hoyts cinema to take advantage of as well as a gym). The room is extremely comfortable with its own reverse cycle unit offering both heating and cooling. The house itself has everything that you need ranging from a very comfortable lounge and dining area, tv, dishwasher, etc. 5 out of 5!
