Excellent, we will be back

We stayed for 3 nights and as soon as we opened the door we were impressed.The view over to the water and parks below, the bright and tastefully appointed room, it was extremely clean and LARGE. Located in a great spot that allows for a quiet stay but not far from the action. We walked to the restaurants, cafes and shops easily while I was 8 months pregnant. Everything has been thought of, from his and hers umbrella's for the unpredictable Melbourne weather, every cooking utensil you could need, toiletries, tea and coffee making supplies, free WIFI and Foxtel. Whilst we didn't have our young son with us the balcony would be very safe and the generous room would make it perfect for families. Arrival and departure was a breeze, with a generous sized car park. The owner was very helpful and accommodating. Thank you so much, we will be back.
