Wonderful homey flat in a stellar location

Loved the comfort and coziness of this very homey accommodation. Host was easy to communicate with, and the house was exactly as described. Lovely sitting room with books and blankets, eat-in kitchen, and bedrooms with good closets. Bathroom has lovely light and a washer and dryer with a clothesline outdoors. Such a great location with cafes and restaurants, easy walk to Univ of Melbourne and to downtown. Highly recommend this for a place that feels like home.
