We loved staying in this apartment. Collingwood is a great area, lots of nice bars, restaurants and cafes and everything is walkable. We highly recommend Proud Mary and A Coffee for tasty coffees. The apartment is very comfortable, everything you need for your stay and is a perfect location. The balcony is really cute, a great place to decompress after a busy day exploring. The shower is really good and Keith has provided lovely products. Highly recommend staying here, we would love to come back!

MCG delight (also near Rod Laver, AAMi Park & CBD)

Nancy ARating, 5 stars1 week ago

My husband had never seen a game at the MCG so we decided to remedy that. This lovely wee flat is a perfect location for both the MCG and the Australian Open. It’s located inside the Mantra Jolimont. The place was spotlessly clean. It is a small flat but very comfortable, the queen size bed was good quality. It is a convenient location as it’s only a block away from the trams and not that far to walk into Melbourne Centre. This is a very leafy area and we found it very quiet. The courtyard was also delightful. Wendy was wonderful and very responsive with the one question we had. Everything was easy to operate and locate. We really enjoyed a stress free, four day stay in this cozy flat.

Richmond Warehouse with Terrace & Parking

SofiaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

David’s apartment was fab. I was there for 2 weeks and felt like a true local. It’s such a cool building with the large ceilings and warehouse vibe. It’s steps away from the station, right next to all the great eats of Swan st and just such a great vibe. Despite its proximity to the hustle and bustle, it’s mostly a quiet place, with the usual day-to-day sounds from the upstairs neighbours now and then. It’s an old building so it’s to be expected. It was pretty chilly weather when I stayed but the reverse cycle warmed it pretty well. Also it’s really equiped for long term stays. The washer/dryer was fab, great kitchen and Coles is 5 mins walk away so you’ve got groceries close by. Oh and Hectors Deli is 1 mins away, great for Sunday pastries and coffee! Thanks for the stay David.

BronRating, 5 stars6 days ago

One of my all time favourite stays in Melbourne (and I have had many). Fitzroy is the suburb with the best character, walkability, access to the city and overall vibe. This little cottage has been stylishly renovated and staying there just felt like home. I loved the plants and artwork, the ability to play my music throughout the house and the smart lighting. Parking was easy with the visitor permit. The concrete floor was chilly (I was warned), so next time I'll pack my Uggs. Thanks for sharing your pad!

A serene balcony overlooks a tree-lined street, adorned with potted plants and herbs. In the distance, colorful hot air balloons ascend into a clear blue sky, creating a picturesque view filled with greenery and hints of the city landmarks beyond.
