The host was welcoming and relaxed. The apartment was exactly as described, comfortable and airy. Located right in the heart of Melbourne CBD, this one might stay was memorable. Thank you!

My second time staying here and I'll be back. Excellent little nest in the heart of Melbourne. Donna was extremely welcoming. Bottle of wine on arrival, chocolates, croissants, and much more... Very romantic apartment and clean apartment. Great feel to it.

Perfect apartment in central Melbourne with everything at my finger tips. Donna provided exceptional service, from the easy communication via text message, a bottle of wine and handmade chocolates on arrival. I will be staying here again next time I visit Melbourne. Thank-you Donna!

Our stay at 115 Swanston was thoroughly enjoyable, everything was perfect! Couldn't have hoped for a better host with Donna and accommodation! I have no hesitation in wanting to go back to stay there again!

We loved our stay at Donna's apartment, which enjoys excellent views of the town hall. Access was simple and the breakfast goods provided were superb.

Donna, thank you for our enjoyable experience of staying in your lovely apartment. You made us feel very welcome on arrival and for the tour of the lane-ways. The apartment is spotless and well stocked with goodies and breakfast available, and the added special treats were wonderful. Being situated in a central location to access all ones needs were perfect for us, and what a great view of the historical town hall day and night. Thank you for being a great host Donna and we would love to stay again in the future. Warm regards, Parys and Allen

This apartment is 10/10, in terms of the apartment itself and its location. It's wonderfully centrally located right opposite the town hall so everything is within easy reach. The apartment is lovely - bright, with plenty of room for 2. It's very well stocked (not that you would consider cooking with so many excellent restaurants/cafes/bars within walking distance) and the personal touches - being met by Donna, given a warm welcome and an informed walk about the local neighborhood, the fresh flowers, bread, wine and chocolate top it off. Highly recommend, will be back.

We hardly have more accolades than the previous reviewers. Donna's always speedy communication before our arrival was most helpful. She met us on arrival and personally escorted us on a tour of the immediate neighborhood which has to be the best location in the city - can't imagine staying anywhere else! She also gave us many tips for dining. She's a delight to talk with not only about Melbourne, but also about her travels and work experiences. Practicalities: there's virtually anything you could want provided in the apartment (washer/dryer with soap, hairdryer, supplies of tea, coffee, milk, bread, butter, cereal, TV, DVD player, etc, etc). If you're a jogger, you are on the doorstep of runs along the river or in the botanic gardens or other parks. If you have a car, there is no parking in the building although we saw many car parks near by (not sure of cost) - park there and use public transport during your stay! Because of the premier location you also have the option of several modes of transportation, although you can walk to most places of interest within 15 minutes, including Southern Cross station. The Skybus hotel transfer drops you literally not more than 100m from the front door of the building which has an elevator. The apartment has a view out onto Swanston St. and the Town Hall, yet is very quiet. Our stay was a 5 star experience and if we get back to Melbourne, we will most definitely stay in the apartment again.

Great location. Lena was a kind host, easy going and friendly. Perfect for a group of 4 for our weekend getaway. There was everything you needed! My bed in the main room was super comfy too. Awesome views and decor - very inspirational! Thank you Lena for letting us stay :)

It's a great place that even makes our trip better. The location of the apartment is inside of the CBD. Public transportation is about five minutes walking and close to the free tram zone. Lena is a really nice host. Easy to chat with :) and the place just as the pics shows that full of plants and decorations. It's a lively, safe, quite and a beautiful place with awesome city view! I would recommend you to choose Lena's place as your home during your travel :)

Strategic location . Foods are everywhere . Transportation are easily accessible . Great place to stay in

Book for family trip. Everything's is fine and good just tramp far a bit for senior citizen.. Near china town.

Great location, close to the city. Appreciated the 2 toilets for privacy. Our guest from Japan appreciated the city views from the balcony. There is No TV which suited us fine. Lena was on time for check in and was more than helpful. Building security is very good.

Lena's place is very aesthetic, just like the photos listed. Communication was very effective and she helped us with an early check in. Location is great, just a walking distance to QV. Thank you Lena!

Wonderful setting, great location, fantastic view and helpful, pleasant hosts! Couldn't ask for a better experience.

Lena was responsive and flexible in catering to our needs. The apartment itself is clean and exactly as shown in the pictures. We really enjoyed our stay - thanks Lena!

Nina's lovely comfortable apartment is in a great location in central Melbourne. The bed is very comfortable, and the kitchen has everything needed to cook a meal if desired. Overall, very clean and comfortable.

Great location, easy to walk to shops and food

Nina's place is beautifully set up and the facilities of the property are world class. I will definitely stay again

Great host, great apartment. She let us check out late after we slept in. The beds and bedding were so comfortable! Great little kitchen. Everything you need. The view from the roof top is amazing!

Nina's apartment is compact and lovely. It has everything you need. Top location.

Nina was a very accommodating host and her apartment was comfortable and well equipped. The apartment was nice and light and the shared area on the top floor had a beautiful view of the city. Nina was flexible about checking us in and out and willing to help with information on luggage storage options in the city. We really enjoyed our stay.

Nina's apartment is really lovely, decorated really nicely, with many little extras too. In the main the bed is so comfortable! Nina communicates really well and is very accommodating. A highly recommend this experience.....

Good Place

Excellent location in Fitzroy -everything on your door step! You dont need to look any further-just book this apt!!

Kate and Has have the cutest apartment, we've thoroughly enjoyed our stays there. The apartment is in a great location with the tram stopping just outside. Will definitely stay there again! Thank you :)

We thought the apartment was cute and cosy for the 2 nights we stayed but maybe a bit small for a long stay. It's close to the trams and the area is vibrant with local shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay. Kate & Has use a agency who were very helpful, friendly & informative. Would book again.

Bright and sunny, comfy space. Very well-equipped. Nice notebook of information awaiting your arrival.

This is a small apartment in the heart of Fitzroy, suitable for anyone that wants to be close to the action. We found the apartment warm and comfortable, and communication pre-arrival to be excellent. Suitable for couples or solo visitors.

Kate and Has' apartment was in a perfect location for us - so close to all the great bars, cafes and shops in the Fitzroy area. The apartment was a perfect size for us and the design of the apartment was a great combination of cool + cosy. The bed was large and comfortable and Kate communicated quickly and courteously with me both before and during our stay. NB - there is no hairdryer. Highly recommended apartment and hosts.

Absolutely brilliant apartment in the best position for Fitzroy shopping & eating. Thankyou Kate & Has for your beautiful space, in a quiet leafy street just off buzzing Gertrude St, with a great collection of design books! Literally a stones throw from the best coffee at De Clieu, walking distance from great eating, shopping and galleries. As a solo female traveller I felt totally secure in this apartment, part of a small complex. Bright & airy, I felt at home, and Kate & Has were always very easy to contact if I needed anything or any info. Looking forward to staying here again on my next Melbourne adventure!

We only had a couple of days in Melbourne and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. Not only was the location perfect, so was the apartment as it had everything we needed. Kate and Has made us feel welcome right from the start. If we are lucky enough to visit this beautiful city again we wouldn't hesitate to book this lovely bright apartment for the second time.

Great location, very helpful host and nice interior and comfortable house

The Apartment has an amazing fit out and a general good vibe. Literally in the centre of the city it was a great setup for a weekend getaway in CBD Melbourne. Couldn't recommend any higher.

A very unique experience that everybody should try. Loved my stay!

There was nothing to be upright and in trouble about correspondence of a wide room and a kind host during a stay. There is also a store in the distance to which you can walk around here from the tram station, and a place is a very convenient place. A host applied a trivial thing to intention and answered wonderfully. A stay in Melbourne was something more wonderful. 私達は日本人で、英語に自信もありませんでしたが、ホストの素晴らしい対応のおかげで困ることはありませんでした。アパートは便利な場所に位置しており、快適で楽しい旅になりました。

Just incredible!!!

Do you want to feel like Tarzan and Jane? Now you can. 10/10.

Fascinating place right in the centre of the CBD close to everything. The decor is playful and clever. If you have a preteen child they would seriously think they have stepped into a magical wonderland. Nice touches with fresh milk, coffee, tea, biscuits and other items. The accommodation is spotless and communication excellent. Definitely recommend.

I really enjoyed my stay at this unique apartment! Easy to arrange my check-in, very helpful with getting settled and check-out was simple. Very unique and cool place to stay for a few days in Melbourne!

The flat was great. Right in the centre of Melbourne and it was really well furnished. Charlee is a lovely host!

Not only are you in for an amazing treat of an Airbnb, but the home has so many personal touches that help you settle in straight away. Charlee is extremely thoughtful with a detailed self-created bible to Melbourne, coffee and milk ready, phone chargers ready for use, and even makeup/cleansers for use (especially perfect for forgetful people like myself)! These little things really add to the entire experience, and I can say with confidence that it was one of the best Airbnb stays I've had thus far :)

Charlee was an excellent host! I was running behind on both my arrival and departure to Melbourne and both times she was super flexible and non fuss about it. Great little flat in a super central location. Bright, airy and clean. Would definitely return!

Charlee was an excellent host and provided all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay in Melbourne. The apartment is located in a convenient spot in the CBD, offering a nice view of the State Library and easy access for exploring the city. Check In/Check Out was simple and Charlee always responded quickly to all communications. She also has a great eye for decorating, as you can see in the pictures :). Overall A++ Airbnb and would definitely stay again next time I visit Melbourne!

I had a great stay here, everything was as shown in the pictures and was really easy to find. Would definitely recommend staying here

Our stay in Charlees apartment was perfect! The apartment is very central and everything is easily within walking distance. It's very clean and it's so comfy furnished. You feel like being home. :) It was one of the best airbnb stays ever !! We would book Charlees apartment every time again! :)

If you're looking for a great launch pad in Melbourne CBD - this is the spot for you! Charles's place is cozy and has everything you need for your Melbourne stay. We loved the location, the views and the comfy bed!

Charles was super organised so getting checked in was a breeZe. The location overlooks the library and is adjacent to public transport so an awesome inner city spot to stay.

Kenneth's apartment was compact and gorgeous apartment. A beautiful location .... with a breathtaking view of city skyline by night. Attention to detail was brilliant and we felt spoilt yet right at home. Brilliant. It will be our place of choice each time we visit the city Bianca and Phillip

We had an excellent experience at Kenneth's apartment! The location was really great, very close to trams. If you're active and prefer to walk, only 10-15 mins walking distance to city's hub. The bed was comfy, amenities modern, everything's spotless! One of the greatest features that I love the apartment is the cute garden balcony, it was so nice to drink my morning coffee there and had a great view of the city! Kenneth was also very informative and provided a very flexible check out time! Highly recommend!

Solid location. Close to major attractions.

Such good value for money ! Super cute easy place to stay. Cafe over the road had good coffee. Host was always quick to reply. Thank you for letting us stay!

Kenneth was very responsive and the stay was wonderful. Would recommend highly ☺

Perfect Melbourne central location! :) We were able to walk everywhere. Small apartment but very good use of space and very comfortable, it was perfect for a weekend away!

Nice place with everything you need. Very central and with a good view. Cheers !

Kenneth's place is in an ideal location with access to public transport, near to famous cafes and shopping area. The apartment is clean and tidy, with everything you may need while staying in Melbourne. The balcony with superb view is great for chilling. Had a very smooth and comfortable stay at his place. This is a great place to stay!

Absolutely everything about both Nat and her apartment was fantastic from start to finish. The apartment was exactly as described and in a great location. Perfect for two couples ... Communication with Nat was great - she got in contact straight away (always a relief) and some really great suggestions for nearby bars, restaurants and local events. Somewhere we'll definitely look to come back to when we are next in Melbourne!

Natalie is such a wonderful host. Made us felt so welcomed despite checking in earlier with the bags. Apartment is nice & clean. Rooftop view is so beautiful esp at night. Location cant be any better-tram stop is just in front at the doorstep within the free tram zone while train station is a stone throw away. Had a lovely stay for 8 nights & wld definitely recommend friends to stay here.

Natalie's apartment is perfect! Best location to see all the main sights, great restaurants and be in the heart of the CBD. The apartment itself is totally clean, compact, beautiful and has all the amenities you need. Also an added bonus is Natalie herself, always helpful and attentive to any questions or suggestions to make your stay as good as possible.

Natalie was super friendly and welcoming, going out of her way to help me find her apartment and meeting me and my family upon arrival. This apartment was exactly what we were looking for, right in the heart of Melbourne. I loved the style of the apartment and all the gorgeous art on the walls. Thanks Natalie for a memorable Melbourne experience for me and my family. We'll be back!

Great experience end to end. Communication was excellent from the moment we booked. Once we arrived our host Natalie gave us a quick tour of the surrounding area and gave us tips on how to get everywhere we wanted to get to. The apartment is comfortable and really well decorated. It has everything you could need. The location is perfect, walking distance to all the main attractions with some of the best restaurants and bars less then 5 minutes away like Chin Chin and Golden State Hotel. Naturally, being in such a good location means you do get a little bit of street noise on a Saturday night that can be heard from one of the bedrooms. All in all we loved staying here.

It was our annual pilgrimage to the Australian Tennis Open and we stayed at Natalie's apartment for 11 nights. We were really late getting there and didn't arrive to around midnight and Natalie was so great to wait for us. Everything was perfect and it suited our purpose for being in Melbourne. The walk to Melboourne Park was about 10 minutes, the closest we have ever been before. I look forward to returning next year!!

Central, well appointed, close to all the good things! Great attentive host.

Our stay at the Laneway Art Apartment was perfect! Natalie is indeed a Superhost - very welcoming, friendly, and always checking on us to make sure that we are settling in well and if we need any help. The apartment is true to pictures, very clean, and well equipped. Beds are really comfortable, slept incredibly well throughout the stay. Location is awesome with bars, restaurants, convenience stores all around, and public transport right outside. We loved the entire stay, and highly recommend it to anyone! Definitely looking forward to be back. Thank you for looking after us, Natalie! :)

Staying in Jenny's incredible apartment absolutely made my stay in Melbourne. From the prompt and polite interactions prior to my stay, to the lovely Cheryl who warmly welcomed me to the apartment, this Airbnb truly is 5 star. Even though you are staying quite literally as central as you could get, there is minimal noise and it feels relaxed, warm, inviting and the apartment is spotless. And the views!!! Wow. I'll definitely be staying here again next time I'm in Melbourne! I cannot recommend it highly enough. Thanks Jenny and Cheryl!

Jennifer's apartment is gorgeous and she made sure it was welcoming when I arrived. Jennifer went out of her way to set a time that worked for both of us to pickup the key. The apartment contained small helpful things like umbrellas and tea/coffee which are often absent in airbnb accommodations. I would love to stay again!

Jennifer's apartment is the best urban AirBnb we have stayed in to date. The fantastic CBD location combined with Jennifer's tasteful Parisian decor will set you up for feeling like Melbourne is Australia's City of Lights. The views of Parliament and local rooftop bars imbue the apartment with an incredible sense of place; what a joy to wake up in the middle of the night for a bathroom run to find Parliament illuminated out the bedroom window! Jennifer was easy to work with and made us feel right at home. She lives in the building (in another unit) and is easily accessible.

Absolute position A in the city. Great restaurants 10metres from front door, ultra cool wine bar in Punch Lane only 50metres from door and Paris End only one block away. Perfect apartment for couples. We will be back.

Host was very welcoming although we did need to wait. Great to drop off our bags early morning

Jennifer is a great host. Despite not being around to host us personally she arrange help Cheryl to welcome us and show us around (both the apartment and e trams aroun). The apartment is great and so is the location. We enjoyed our stay, and sadly is too short.

Fantastic apartment not just aesthetically but in terms of location. Eateries, shops, trams, bookstores and redspot car rental are so close by. Loved how cosy, comfortable and beautiful the apartment is, making us feel right at home in melbourne city. Also the little sweet touches including the wonderful collection of books and CDs, milk in fridge. We also had amazing vietnamese-style tapas at rice paper scissors just downstairs. And thanks Cheryl & Jen for being excellent hosts, with great tips for day trips. Lovely, lovely place!

Apartment was fantastic location close to great shops, bars and restaurants. Apartment was great size and very comfortable.

I booked on behalf on my parents visiting from the UK, and the apartment was absolutely perfect for them. It was a great base for exploring Melbourne, right in the heart of everything but a little sanctuary in itself. Beautifully decorated, plenty of information available for newbies to Melbourne and comfy enough to call home! I came for at least a cup of tea each day, and loved the place just as much as they did. Thanks Katherine for taking care of us and communicating so easily. Would thoroughly recommend.

Katherine was very helpful, filled with lots of local knowledge and enthusiasm to ensure we got the most out of our stay in Melbourne. She even marked out and provided different adventure maps. Thank you again!

The apartment was great! Clean, neat, comfortable and everything was brand new. The location could not have been better, basically at the top of China town, within walking distance to everything, including the best dumplings we've ever had. The hosts were super helpful and easy to communicate with. We had a great time and will definitely recommend this listing to friends and family. Thanks Cara and Greg!

The location was perfect for us, very easy to access transport and cafe's. The unit was beautiful and funky, very well equipped with all we needed to eat in as well. Decor is beautiful. We were made very welcome and all our needs were accommodated. Response time from Cara was quick and the whole experience was easy and very pleasant. Thanks to Katherine for all her amazing organisation and follow up. Cheers, Robyn Simpson

This apartment was perfect for our recent week long getaway. It was well appointed, clean and comfortable, perfectly located in the city for getting around either on foot or by the excellent public transport in Melbourne. Katherine who manages the apartment on behalf of Cara and Greg was so friendly, helpful and happy to provide suggestions as to entertainment, night life and where to eat. There are so many excellent options in the area and many are just a hop skip or a jump from the apartment itself.

Thank you so much Cara. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to stay here again. There are some hidden gems right near the apartment that we didn't need to venture very far for an awesome few nights. Love the decor - would recommend and would stay again! Thanks again, Shally

A truly fantastic apartment for a weekend (or week or month) in the City. The location is superb, being able to walk to a huge number of delicious cafes and restaurants is fabulous, too many to sample, ensuring a return visit! The apartment is warm, inviting and full of all the comforts of home, including all the kitchen appliances needed to be self-contained. Being within walking distance to fabulous shopping, theatres and sights, is such an asset. As the apartment is also on the doorstop of the free tram it means it is easy to visit many galleries and museums, as well as the Arts Centre, where we saw a show. A gorgeous retreat that feels like a home away from home, just better.

Great apartment in a fabulous location in Melbourne city. Tram stop at your doorstep or a short walk into the main shopping, eating areas of the city. Clean, cozy and very cheerful place to call home during our stay. The apartment was kitted out with everything you need and more. Easy to locate and host is happy to help if you have any queries. Highly recommend this little gem.

Great location near the Botanical gardens and a tram stop heading into the city. Great food nearby and off course, June is very accommodating and provides all the necessary information for you to explore and take in Melbourne!

Love staying at June's place. Everything was perfect - the place super clean, comfy beds - wonderful spa with the best views. Would highly recommend!

I hope to be able to stay there every time we are in Melbourne. Great position,great appartment and everything you could want.

Thank you June for a fabulous stay in a gorgeous apartment. This was absolutely perfect for my colleague and I. We loved the layout, having two bathrooms was a bonus. And HOORAY for rooftop spas at sunrise before a conference!

Great stay

Lovely spot. The hot tub and view is amazing.

Beautiful roof top spas with views of the ocean and city day and night. Great modern apartment for short stays.

June is a great hostess who genuinely had our wellbeing at heart. The apartment is well appointed, great beds and ideally located. We would definitely stay there again. Thank you for looking after us June!

I can't imagine any better place to stay in Melbourne! The location is perfect (right in the city center, lots of shops&restaurants nearby, tram stops and train station just around the corner). The room is cozy and everything is clean. The bathroom is big and well equipped. Lots of towels, shampoo and shower gel. Bronwyn and her husband are so very nice, friendly and helpful. It was always a pleasure spending a little time with them! Their recommendations for places to go and see made our stay even better!

Bronwyn was very accommodating during our stay. Coffee on arrival, Myki cards to get about, recommendations for local restaurants and things to do and a yummy breakfast each day. The apartment was warm and comfortable. Location was perfect, a very short walk to shops, Flinders St station and trams. Excellent restaurants close by too. Some noise from the street though that would disrupt your sleep if you struggle with using ear plugs.

Bronwyn's place is MASSIVE! The location is very central with plenty of places to visit, see and eat! Bronwyn is super friendly, helpful and so is her friend Graeme - a nice gentleman who picked us up at the airport and gave us a guide to the city on the way to her place. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this place! If you are interested in architecture or interior design, this place would be perfect for you!

Bronwyn place was beautiful and we really enjoyed the kind hospitality of Bronwyn and Michael. This would be my first choice of stay if I were to return. Thank you Bronwyn and Michael!

Brownyn is so friendly ,she made us just feel like at home. The room for us is clean and neat with a lovely bathroom.

Bronwyn was an excellent, warm and welcoming host. She took the time to get to know my interests and recommended places in Melbourne I wouldn't have found myself. The room was spacious, comfortable and clean with a large bathroom just across the hall. Location is A+++! You literally have the whole of Melbourne on your doorstep. When I return to Melbourne, Bronwyn's awesome warehouse apartment will be my first choice of accommodation. Thanks so much for having us. Kind regards, Jodie and Josh x

Bronwyn is a heart warming host. Before two days I started my journey, she sent me a message describing the details how to get to her place. But when I arrived in Melbourne I still got lost. It was 9.30pm, she went out of her house and met me and my wife in a street, then lead us to her place. After we settle down, she made the tea for both of us. We felt like we come back to our family home not a hotel. The room we stayed has a very high ceiling making the room very specially. Although we live with Bronwyn, but we still have our own bath room. There is a door to separate our living area and her area, it made us a very privacy room. She provided us very fine bathroom products. Shampoo, shower gel, hand wash and towel, etc, are the best quality. In the morning, she provided us breakfast with coffee, break with variety of jam and cereal. We liked the bread toasted with strawberry jam! We stayed in Melbourne for two nights. I'd like to say we have a best experience for our accommodation. It is not living in a hotel, it is like you come back home!

We thank most sincerely our wonderful, very friendly and at every time very helpful host Bronwyn for having us in her stylish and spacious apartment. We enjoyed the very comfortable and well-appointed room and bathroom. The apartment is perfectly situated for exploring the City. Bronwyn is a very impressive person and a warm and interested host, energetic and extremely helpful. She even gave us a lift to our next accomodation in Melbourne. We also like her cute and very friendly little dog Chai. We would highly recommend Bronwyns location and hope to return sometimes!

We were two couples and Chammy's place was perfect for us - lovely furnishings, very clean, great location, and her communications and instructions for entry etc were great. A little inside tip: Right across the laneway was a very popular breakfast spot - Hardware Societe. It was really good but the queues were insane. We asked the lovely waitress if she would wave up to us when our turn came up, so we could sit in the sun on the balcony drinking coffee instead of standing in a queue :)

Would highly recommend staying at Chammy's. Perfectly located in CBD, close to transport and shops and eateries. Fantastic communication and service from Chammy, made everything really easy.

We had a wonderful time during our stay in Chammy's duplex apartment. The place is SO lovely... very clean, modern, spacious and extremely comfortable!! Everything has been thought of and all amenities are provided, even the body wash and shampoo! Self check-in and self check-out made things so easy and convenient, especially with our late arrival. Chammy is a great host, very friendly and extremely quick to respond to all communication. I definitely recommend to all and would love to stay again next time! :)

Great location, lovely (URL HIDDEN) organised and explained check-in. Can get hot on warm days but air-con available

Chammy's place was brilliant - very comfortable for the 3 adults who stayed, apartment on the top floor so very quiet, short walk to city centre. Chammy was also excellent with communication around the booking and access details - very friendly. Would definitely stay again when in Melbourne.

Excellent location right in the centre of Melbourne, lively cafes and nightlife. Ideal for me, being close to the business area and shopping!

It was a beautiful flat, very tidy, and as accurate as photos. The location was convenient with fun cafes right on the alley. Chammy was a great host- responsive and gracious.

Amazing place and Chammy was easy to contact and responded to my last minute request very quickly. Loved staying here and wish I could have stayed longer! Also beds were so comfy which was a plus. Thanks again

Chris and Tino have got a great apartment from which to explore Melbourne. It's perfectly located the near Flinders Street Station and has everything you need. I thoroughly recommend it for a stay.

We had a great stay at the apartment! Great size and perfect location.Hosts were awesome and friendly to deal with. The price was really reasonable and having a place to park really helped.

Colleague said that the house was great and you guys were great as well, overall a great experience!!

Booking was easy, we were greeted by Chris who showed us around the apartment and gave us some good tips of places to go and eat. Apartment was exactly as the pictures, nice touches with complimentary fruit, tea, snacks, shower gel, shampoo & conditioner. Central location, close to all amenities. Home stay/arrival guide was very useful. Lovely fluffy towels. Had a really pleasant stay, would definitely recommend this place.

Five stars all around. Two thumbs up! Accommodation was clean and neat. In the heart of the city and accessible.

Chris and Tino's apartment in the heart of Melbourne is the perfect place for a getaway. Clean and well presented, with funky art pieces! With its central location it made life very easy. Would not hesitate to book again.

Fantastic location and great hosts!

We had a great time at Chris and Tino's wonderfully situated, spacious apartment. It was clean, well furnished and in the best location. Thanks so much guys!

John was an amazing host and we had a wonderful time at his apartement. He responded always very fast and was super helpful with everything!the apartment is beautiful,very clean,comfortable and the location is great. Actually we felt like at home. Thanks john for everthing!

John was a great host. He was really helpful and gave a lot of great tips about what to do in Melbourne. The place was central to the CBD and was in walking distance to most things. We walked everywhere on our stay and loved how easy it was. It's a great location if you want to be near lots of restaurants, bars and shops. The place was clean and the perfect amount of space for two people. Would definitely stay here again!

I stayed here with my girlfriend for three nights and John was amazing when it came to checking in, offering suggestions and help throughout my stay via text messages. The apartment is amazing and very nice and clean. We love the finishing touches to this place! Highly recommended host and place!!

Return visit to this excellent apartment. The location is excellent, with tram stops across the road, a taxi rank right in front, and Parliament station also in front. There is even a MYKI to use so you do not have to spend $6 to get one if you're only visiting. John is an amazing host who is flexible and a good communicator. There is much appreciated extras like tim tams, tea and coffee, beer and crisps. The apartment is super clean, has everything you would want and is tastefully decorated. John and Paul have done a great job. If available, I will always return to Bourke Street Retreat when in Melbourne.

John's apartment is perfectly located with easy access to trams and trains or within walking distance to bars, restaurants and shopping. It was immaculately clean and tidy with all amenities you need. John was also very knowledgable about things to see and do and was happy to share his favourite places to eat and drink. I had a great stay and would highly recommend it.

This apartment was just such a joy to stay in; big lovely windows, a very well kitted out kitchen, extremely comfortable bed and pillows and lovely and quiet despite being in the centre of the city. John is a very gracious host who went out of his way to accommodate our check in and out times, gave us great suggestions for things to do and made us feel very welcome and at home. Being so central it was very easy for us to get anywhere, and there were tonnes of gorgeous bars and restaurants very close by. I can't rave about this lovely little apartment enough. Wonderful!

John's place is fantastic. It is the best overall place I have stayed in with airbnb. The location is perfect. close to heaps of bars and restaurants, but still quiet so you're not disturbed when you sleep. The facilities were great too. A spacious bathroom and generous kitchen. Myself and my partner really enjoyed the stay and I hope to stay there again.

Great location, great host, clean, quiet!

very friendly host! both my parents were super happy with the stay! very roomy apartment with two big and warm bedroom! yhe location is superb! the host stuary was very helpful ! the most important its pet friendly! our lovely mango. was really enjoyed the stay as well! the parking might bit pain in the ass during thr day time. but no problem after hr at at all! afterall it was a really nice place to stay !

Stuart and his Appartment are both great. If I ever am lucky enough to come back to Melbourne I will definitely stay here again, if it's available

Stuart's apartment was lovely! The beds were extremely comfortable and luxurious. The apartment itself is airy and beautifully decorated. The area is leafy and green. It was easy to get a taxi or tram right out the front.

My girlfriends and I stayed at this apartment for the long weekend in June and we absolutely loved it. The apartment is beautiful and furnished with everything you need including all the kitchen utensils you could possibly want. Stuart had also left milk, chocolates, bread and other essentials to keep us going over the weekend which was a lovely touch. There is also a coffee machine - How Melbourne!! The location couldn't be better, the trams run outside the front door to the CBD and to St Kilda Beach - 10-15 minutes each way. I would highly recommend that a family of a friendship group for a fun weekend stay here. We'll definitely be be back to stay again! 5 STARS and better than any hotel!

First Class. Out first experience with AirB&B could not have been better. A fantastic location and a wonderful apartment. We really cannot find fault. The host, Stuart, was an absolute gentleman. Everything is at your door with the wonderful Fawkner Park at your back door. Sincere Thanks.

I stayed at Stuart's place with 3 other people and we loved it! The apartment is spacious and so clean, we had everything we needed, the location is fantastic - only 2.5km to the heart of St Kilda, with all the great bars and restaurants, and if you go the other way it's only a very short tram ride to the heart of Melbourne CBD, where you are spoiled for choice with things to do and see. The apartment is very central with tram stop right outside yet it's nice and quiet and away from all the noise. There is a convenience shop right next door that's open late. The apartment itself is secure, in great condition and clean. Stuart was a great host and allowed us a late check out (thank you!) - I would definitely stay at this place again, it is such a lovely apartment and great value for money :)

We really enjoyed the 1930s ambience of this beautifully renovated Art Deco apartment. It was as spacious as described, comfortable and was somehow quiet even though so close to the trams. Handy to transport - can't underestimate the importance of this when car-less in a strange city. We would all happily stay there again.

Three adults visited the apartment for a week and made ourselves at home. It was great to have two nice bedrooms, a full kitchen and access to a clothes washer and dryer. Stu has taken the time to ensure you have the basics to make it a comfortable stay. During our stay, we rented movies to watch on the DVD player, cooked most of our meals at home and spent a bit of time on the deck. There is a large park in the backyard and grocery stores and restaurants are within walking distance and the tram stop is at the end of the block. The beds were comfy and cozy. The apartment was clean and perfect for our family holiday.

Wonderful location. Clean. Comfortable. Sunny was a great host and took care of all our needs.

Sunny's place was perfect for a weekend trip to Melbourne. Located on Collins St, everything is in walking distance or quick tram trip away. The apartment was clean and very nicely decorated. The room was quiet, we didn't get any street noise. I would highly recommend staying here.

Easy to find, great natural light, very clean, top location. Thanks for having us Sunny

Amazing flat in the heart of the city, great location and very clean. Sunny was very accomodating with check ins/outs. Would definitely stay here again.

Sunny's place was great! Central location right in the CBD, close to public transit, shops, restaurants, etc. Check in and check out was super easy and convenient. Great if you are looking for a hotel-like experience with a more comfortable vibe.

Excellent & spotless apartment with everything we needed for a long weekend. Lovely and helpful host, great communication, easy and clear arrival/departure. Very convenient inner city location, walking distance to southbank - also enjoyed using the shared bikes just opposite. Thanks Sunny.

Delightful little apartment - well equipped with everything you might need, check in and out process was very simple and Sunny was always very responsive to enquiries. The location was perfect - nearby to trams and everything you need in the CBD. Would definitely stay again!

Perfect apartment in the centre of Melbourne city. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, & only wished we had stayed longer. Thank-you Sunny :)

Jj was very welcoming. Apartment as described, very clean. Great location, close to transport, good food and coffee. Thanks for a great stay

Loved our stay. Apartment is perfectly positioned for business or holiday. Great host, with an easy and well guided check-in. Timely and effective on responses. Will definitely come back :-)

JJ was very welcoming and flexible with the check-in time. The apartment was just perfect. Great views, everything you need, fantastic location etc. A+

Apartment was perfect, warm, clean, comfortable, convenience, quick responses for any kinds to help by JJ, I'm highly recommend this is nicer apartment

The location of the hostel was very close to the city. So we could walk to the city and it was close to the tram station so it was really easy to get around. The house was very comfortable and there was no inconvenience in living. It was a good place to stay again.

JJ's place was our favourite in Melbourne! Right next to the Southern Cross station, it's a great location when coming from or going to the airport as the Skybus is right there. Besides that everything in Melbourne's CBD is at walking distance. The apartment itself is nicely decorated and equipped with anything you might need and more. There are simple kitchen amenities in case you want to cook, a nice bed and bathroom, and a great spacious living room with a balcony. JJ and Marnie are great hosts and always try to help out wherever they can. On our checkout day we were able to leave our luggage in the apartment until the evening so we could spend the day in the city, which was great! We loved JJ's Melbourne city guide, which made it easier to choose from Melbourne's many restaurants/bars/cafés.

Great view from the terrace :)

Thanks JJ & Marnie for hosting us at your lovely place!
