We had a warm and comfortable stay in the middle of winter. The house is very well equipped with all that you could need including heaters in all rooms, iron, hairdryer. Sure, there are cracks in the walls and the doors are wonky but it all adds to the inner city experience. Close to Smith street and heaps of cafe and restaurants. Easy to park with the permit. The back yard could do with a spruce up

Close to everything - fantastic stay

Perfectly located comfortable house close to everything including both train and trams. Though close to Hoddle street, we never heard the traffic. Great to walk the Yarra Trail in the morning plus bars, cafes and restaurants close by. The backyard was nice to sit in under the lemon tree. Will definitely stay again.
