Our stay at Peter's place (we stayed for 12 nights) in Balaclava was fantastic. He was a great host, meeting us at the train station and walking us over to his place. He provided a fantastic complimentary food basket (fruits, nuts, milk, orange juice, cereal and cracker/cheese) and even gave us Myki passes ($40.00 each) for our stay! It's an easy tram and/or train ride to everywhere in Melbourne.
He let us use the laundry facilities and even went out of his way to grab our clothes that were drying outside when it was about to rain.
The place itself is brand new and was like having an entire place to ourselves. There was AC and satellite TV that entertained us when we were relaxing. He also let us stay way past the normal checkout time so that we could enjoy the day and still catch our late night flight out. Basically, one of the best stays we've had at an Airbnb! We'd come back for sure.
