I very much recommend staying at Lisa's place. Her and her daughter Indy are very welcoming, friendly and helpful and they also respect your privacy when you need it too. I was working at the nearby hospital so the convenience of walking 10-12 mins to work was ideal for me. There is a big shopping centre near the hospital too where I bought all my food so that was easy and if you are into keeping fit there is also a gym about 200m away from Lisa's place (open early until late). Also buses run to the Epping train station should you want to travel into the Melbourne CBD so that was convenient too. Another bonus is the bedroom and ensuite which are at one end of the house so you can come and go when you like, ideal for me when I was working long hours..and the bed is the best, slept like a log every night after a long day! Thanks for the hospitality Lisa & Indy, Koko (dog) and Charlie (cat) too, hope to see you again some time, take care Graeme
