We had a great month's stay at Rick's and can thoroughly recommend this as a base to explore Melbourne or if you need to base yourself in this side of the city for a short stay. The apartment is bright, comfortable, clean, modern and good value for the large space and furnishings/appliances available. Close to public transport but we also had free parking for our car. The supermarket was only a short stroll away and we enjoyed the free bbq facility in the park located a minute's walk from the house. Rick is a considerate and knowledgeable host and it was a pleasure to meet him.
