Victoria's apartment is the perfect hub for exploring the cool northwestern inner city of Melbourne: Fitzroy, Collingwood, Carlton and Brunswick are all within an easy ride on the trams and/or buses or a comfortable walk. The nearby North Fitzroy village has nice grocery stores and restaurants as well. The apartment is next to a big park - big trees provide shade for a midday siesta/picnic and nights are great for spotting some possums and flying foxes. However, it is the apartment itself that is the real treat. Victoria has thought of everything: we (two people) stayed for a week and never needed to contact her about needing something. The apartment block even has a nice and easy-to-use laundry room. When contacted, Victoria replied very quickly and she seems like a really nice person. Her well-equipped and charming apartment really made for a perfect home-away-from-home experience.
