When I booked Gill's place mainly for the location, I had no idea that is was in for such a treat.
Communicating with Gill was really easy and she always answered promptly, if not initiated by her. She is clearly a very thoughtful host and gave me recommendations for my arrival and was always very flexible and understanding towards delays and plan changes.
Even though she had offered to leave a key and instructions at a near cafe, she welcomed me personally.
The building is secured with multiple access secured doors and the elevators also require an RFID tag.
You'll notice immediately that Gill's place has the most stunning views of St Kilda from every room - including the bathroom! Her home is well furnished and cosy and has plenty amenities: free Wifi, Netflix, hairdryer, fan. On top of that Gill offered towels, soap, breakfast and tea/coffee!
The room is wonderfully bright and comfy with a full glass door front with access to the terrace/balcony and again: stunning views. But don't worry, there's also a roller blind. A big wardrobe offers plenty of luggage storage space which I didn't even need. The separated bathroom and toilet are just perfect for a shared apartment.
There is plenty of public transport around the corners or take a quick 10-15min walk to the centre of St Kilda. Throughout the day there is a direct SkyBus connection from the Airport.
