Location: easy walk to Toorak Village where there are many shops and cafes. Pity we didnt get a chance to explore it. The neighbours were quiet and we never ran into any while staying here for 4 nights.
Space: Beautiful big space albeit dated in the bathrooms. Some would call it nostalgic charm. Whole house is centrally heated which is great for cold nights. My friends and I choose not to cook in the kitchen and eat out for our meals. All bedrooms have heating vents and beds are comfortable.
Check in: Megan, the co-host did not meet us when we arrived just past 8 pm. I messaged Heather, the host, for help who then tried to look for the combination number to the lock box. When Heather gave me the number, I thought it was the number to key into the wall panel to gain access into the building. After trying many times with the number given, Megan messaged and alerted me to the lock box. We managed to find the lock box in the dark but the combination number was incorrect. Megan messaged me with another combination number to the lock box. We tried and failed to open the lock box. Megan then apologised and gave another combination number. And again, the combination number was incorrect. We then decided to go back to the earlier number given and finally, the lock box opened. It was not a pleasant situation as it was cold, dark and wet. Cold fingers, numerous combination numbers and a metal lock box do not go well.
