Jillian's place, her lovely welcome and helpful attention was much appreciated over the duration of my stay and leading up to it. The space is beautiful, thoughtfully designed and very well equipped. The area feels very local and lovely. Near enough to great cafes and restaurants (Jillian has some great suggestions) and I also really enjoyed walks around the nature reserves and parklands too. Very quiet locale but very close to the action when you want to be there. On a separate note — I noticed such a lovely community within the nearby cafes. Feels like a great neighborhood.
I was working during the day, so chose the space as it looked like an accommodating place to settle into some work hours. Was not disappointed. Lots of space (more than I expected) and the wifi worked optimally.
It was lovely to meet Jillian, hear her and her partners' story and enjoy a lovely time in Clifton Hill. I expect to return if I'm needed in Melbourne again soon.
