Lovely time in Jerome's place. Central base to enjoy Melbourne from and easy to take public transport or walk to and from. Jerome responded promptly to any questions, from booking to departure. He also left a list of foodie and other tourist suggestions for those new to the town -- and even though Melbourne is 'home' to me, it was fun to eat in some new-to-me options. Over a stay of a week, some nights were more city-quiet and others more city-lively exactly as you might expect in the 'beating heart'. Deep sleeps in a comfortable bed after days of enjoyable walking, looking, adventures. A balcony and big slide door-window to enjoy fresh air and streetscape, well above the crowds but not lost in the heights of a tower. A balance of sufficient privacy (offered through the balcony glazing design) and city-views / light -- blinds available, if further privacy necessary but not felt required during stay. A cosy, thoughtful space and considerate host.
