I had a fantastic stay in Qiao's beautiful apartment. She is incredibly kind and helpful, and had everything ready to go for me right when I got to Melbourne. She even got me some welcome gifts and a Melbourne city guide book :) The room itself gets beautiful lighting and has its own bathroom, so I had everything I needed. The wi-fi was great, which was a plus since I'm an online graduate student. The apartment is beautifully decorated and spacious, and the balcony is lovely with amazing beach views. The tram is right around the corner, with many lines that go both into the city and out to St. Kilda. I can't recommend her apartment enough to a solo traveler who wants to feel at home in a new city and explore Melbourne in a quieter neighborhood.
