We loved our month long stay at Melissa's flat! It is small, but we found it suited two people just fine. It is nicely decorated and very cozy and homey feeling and was very clean when we arrived. The flat had everything we needed. It did get a little chilly at times (we visited in August) but with the heater and heated sheets (how have we never known about these before?!) it was easy enough to heat up to a comfortable temperature. The kitchen is also a little small, but the microwave that is also an oven worked great and we didn't have any issues cooking basic meals for the two of us for the month. The area is fantastic, just a short walk to a grocery store, convenience store, bars and restaurants and a tram stop just a couple of minutes walk away. With lots to do nearby, just a few tram stops away (Acland Street, Esplanade Market, Luna Park, etc.) It is about a 30 minute tram ride into the city but we didn't mind it at all. And it is right across the street from the beach! Melissa was an excellent host, she was very organized, attentive and friendly. And was very responsive anytime we had a question or needed help! I would highly recommend Melissa's place!
