We have traveled extensively, however are newbies with AirBnB. Fortunately we have had an amazing experience with our first hosts, Rose and Terry. They graciously met us upon arrival and introduced us to their favourite neighbor hood haunts, including local restaurants, coffee shops and supermarkets all within walking distance. We were introduced to some neighbors and our hosts generously provided us with transit information MYKI cards and numerous facts about Melbourne. Like the hosts our accommodation was very welcoming. Many personal touches were evident including a fresh vase of flowers, beautiful artwork and gorgeous credenza in the galley kitchen, all adding to the ambience. Our rooms were spotlessly clean, light and airy. Great glass doors opened onto a private outdoor space which provided a welcome respite from Melbourne lively night life. We often sat amongst the tropical plants enjoying a glass of wine and a good book. The kitchen was fully appointed with everything one needed. Rooms were air conditioned. In summary we felt fortunate to find such a lovely AirBnB with close access to Melbourne CBD and great hosts.
