Nice room close to a tram station, takes you about 30 min to get in the city but you also have plenty of activities, shops and restaurants close to the appartement, Andy and Van are really nice and comforting hosts and it was a pleasure to stay at their place, they also have a really cute and playful cat that accompanies you in case you stay home.

We were the first guests to stay at their new flat and it was a great experience. The flat is a new build and in an excellent location with on site free use of the gym and swimming pool. Andy and Van were very easy to live with and extremely respectful. The room is big enough for two and they do provide a fan as it does get very hot. Highly recommend :)

Nice room in a great location. Short walk to public transport and local shopping center. Very friendly hosts.

It's a very beautiful place to live,and the cat is very cute,the room is very clean

Andy was great! We could pick up the key to his appartement the night before we checked in, so we could get in the flat when he was at work. He was really nice and everything was uncomplicated and easy! We loved his little cat and highly recommend this host!! Thank you very much :-)

Andy and Van are really nice and friendly couple. Also,there is a cute cat with its actitivly. We are the lucky people to choose andy's family. The apartment is new and comfotrable。It is easy to get tram 12or 109 to go to the city CBD. We will live Andy and Van's room if we back to MEL.

Thank you for your wonderful hopsitality. I had an enjoyable stay, with all your local suggestions as well as your kind invitations to join you for dinner. I will definitely be back if I have the chance. Thanks Andy & Van! Allan

Andy and Van were really nice to us, we are so lucky to stay at their house for two nights. They cared about us and were so friendly to us which made us so comfy. Definitely would come back again if we had another chance!

perfect! Comfortable and clean!

Phil was a great host getting back to me with details quickly His home is very comfortable and located close to Smith and Brunswick Streets Thx Phil for making my first Airbnb stay so easy Kate

Staying here was exactly what I was looking for when I came to Melbourne. Phil is a fantastic host and does everything to make the guest feel comfortable when staying with him. He's really easy to get on with and a terrific conversationalist. Would recommend

Great place to unwind from a hectic busy workweek in Melbourne. Super close to an amazing part of the Yarra river, I loved drinking coffee in the balcony listening to the river and the birds. The part of town is also interesting with nice shops to explore (found one specialising in tea, and managed to find my rare Argentinian mate tea).

Phil is a great host and I had an excellent week staying at his apt. Location was ideal, outside the hustle and bustle of CBD but only a five minute walk to Victoria park train station, which gets you down to Flinders street in 15 minutes. The bedroom itself is literally overlooking the Yarra river; in fact there is a balcony outside the bedroom where you could really soak up the views outside. Phil was very friendly and accommodating, willing to give suggestions about the city and chat about the day. He is very quick to reply to emails throughout the day if you need to reach him. You get your own private bathroom, very clean and good shower water pressure. Bedroom itself is simple but clean and comfortable. I especially enjoyed the floor to ceiling windows, which allowed in a lot of sun light in the day time and the ability to open the door to the balcony which allows in a lovely breeze. Again, great overall experience on all fronts and would definitely recommend!

About Phil: Phil is a great host, very gentle, always smile, provide many suggestions, contact me in advance before my arrival. About location: 15mins train from southern cross station. 5mins walk from Phil's home to Victoria park train station. Convenience! About the room: Very clean and cozy, especially the bathroom. The decoration with movie posters is fantastic, as a movie fan, it was like heaven. About equipment: Fast wifi, clean bed, very good use shampoo and hair dryer. I stayed 5 nights at Phil's home, feel safe and comfortable. I would recommend Phil's apartment to other travels to Melbourne, and I will definitely stay here if I came to Melbourne again.

I have been really well welcomed. Phil gave me useful instructions on how to find the apartment and made it easy for me to receive the keys when I arrive from the airport. I had a great weekend in Melbourne and staying at Phil's place was a nice experience. I would recommend him with no doubts.

The place is great; it is actually way better in reality than on pictures. It is just next to a football playing field and a convince store, train station, and restaurants are within a couple of minutes’ walk. Phil makes sure that you feel comfortable. For those who is coming for a longer term, and looking to have a place to do some work on a laptop, Phil's place is definitely the best! You get a table with a beautiful view of the Yarra river and high-speed Internet. If you into sports, there is a recreational center not too far away with a swimming pool and a gym. If you would like to cook, all kitchen facilities are there.

Scarlett's apartment was a great base for our stay! It's in an interesting, up-and-coming neighborhood offering a great mix of hipster and asian eateries, and an easy walk or bus ride to trendy areas like Fitzroy & Collingwood. Scarlett's a communicative host, and when we accidentally locked ourselves out, she solved the problem in minutes with zero stress. Would stay here again!

The host was very accomodating and warm. She made sure everything is taken cared of. She respects your privacy and was very flexible with regards to check out time. Greatly recommend her place!

Although kitchen and living room are shared with the host and other guests, we enjoyed exceptional privacy and peace all the time. Whenever we asked for help, Dee and her partner went beyond their way to support us. Dee is a super kind lady who takes hosting standards seriously. Overall, everything at Dee's house was excellent. I would recommend Dee's place to anyone.

Roslyn was not there (as she was in Sydney, which she let us know about) but her partner was very helpful and welcoming when we first arrived. The bungalow has a lovely atmosphere and a very comfortable bed! Everything worked perfectly, excellent internet, television, shower, bathroom and even a big mirror i could lift into the main room to help me get ready! Ros' house is a short walk from some beautiful cafe's as well as the train station, we highly recommend others stop for a bite at Dr Morse Bar & Eatery right under the train station, wonderful food and service! Overall Ros' bungalow was the perfect fit for us, we'd love to come stay again next time we're in Melbourne :)

Beautiful accomodation. Self-contained modern bungalow with extremely friendly and respectful host. Lovely part of Melbourne to explore. Highly recommended!

My fiancée and I stayed at Roslyn's bungalow for a week and absolutely loved it. The apartment is really conveniently located making anywhere you want to go very accessible. The bungalow is even better than pictured. Very spacious clean and comfortable - especially the bed!!! We had everything we needed to cook all our meals and live comfortably. Roslyn was an amazing host. Very kind, responsive and quick to address any of our needs, including a last minute request for an overnight parking pass, bathroom supplies, and even a cup of milk for our coffee so that my fiancée didn't need to make the track to buy some. We use AirBnB a lot and this was by far the best experience we have had. I would highly recommend Roslyn's bungalow to anyone visiting Melbourne.

Roslyn and his family received us very kindly in his bungalow, it was very well equipped with everything necessary for comfort. There was some food for breakfast and grooming. The neighborhood is very pleasant, familiar surroundings and found a bohemian atmosphere. The Bungalow is close to Melbourne and there is good transportation to the more tourist sites. The pictures were exactly what we found. Enjoyed the farm is very close to home for our son.

Great host, nice house and very great neighbourhood.

It was a perfect experience for myself and my family. Roslyn ensured to make adequate arrangements for my kids. There was everything ready with attention to detail. There was ample privacy. The place was as described and bed is just awesome. The TV worked perfectly for us ... So the minor signal disturbance is tolerable :)

This place was the perfect size for my friend and I. Situated in a nice and quiet neighborhood, it didn't take us too long to get into the cbd - only had 2 days in Melbourne so we took an uber to the city and it cost us about 12AUD. The bed is really nice and the place is a separate bungalow opposite the host - blinds are available if you prefer more privacy. I'd recommend it to anyone!

We felt most welcome and at home. A magnificent location with everything at hand including nature.

We had a fantastic time at Abbotsford. The location was great-very close to the river, public transport and bars. James an Lauren perfect hosts. They were very quick to respond to any requests. Would highly recommend.

Great flat James and couldn't be any nearer to our family. No problems and would certainly come back in the future. Thank you for all your help. June

We can highly recommend this apartment. Situated just off Johnston St and right next to the creek, you couldn't ask for a more beautiful spot. The apartment itself was great. Super clean and tidy and it had everything we needed. James and Lauren were very helpful and accommodating and not least easy to communicate with, making us feel very welcome. The place is close to great cafes and public transport (bus and train) and a 15 min walk to Victoria St where you can indulge in tasty and cheap Vietnamese food. We'd definitely come back!

Would recommend staying at this James places. Close to public transport and a clean and comfortable place to stay at.

Perfectly located near the Abbotsford convent, where we were attending a wedding. James provided clear and timely instructions for access, and the unit was ideal for our stay.

Really loved location. Very tidy place

This place is highly recommended! I'm planning to stay in this place again already!

I needed to find a room for my parents, after a flight being cancelled on them. My father has a disability and we needed to check that the room was suitable. It was all very last minute and Geraldine was fantastic, prompt and made our difficult situation much much easier. Most important Mum & Dad were more than comfortable and slept very well.

The room exceeded my expectations. It was very clean and spacious. It had all the basic amenities that you need for an overnight stay. The location was very convenient too. The place was a few steps away from Aldi and a lot of restaurants. The fresh fruits inside the room was a big plus for me. Geri and Nick were very hospitable. We had a free parking space too. I have nothing but positive things to say.

We stayed at Geri and Nick's place about a week ago and come back again! We love their place so much. It's super clean and we feel like at home! If I could give them 6 stars I definitely will! Thx a lot for hosting us, and we hope to see you again either in Taiwan or Australia:)

Geraldine and Nick were just the most beautiful couple. Our stay was perfect and made even better by the home comforts of the room and the best company. It's clean, homely and great way to enjoy Melbourne. Thank you for our stay x

Geraldine and her husband Nick were very welcoming and kind. The room was stunning, with a fabulous bed and ensuite, and great to have a kitchenette, which was stocked with some fresh fruit, toast and cereals. The room is also nicely situated to the front of the house, providing a sense of privacy. Loved being able to go for a run by the nearby Yarra river. Great place- would highly recommend it!

Great value, excellent communication, very comfortable and well equipped. Recommend.

Geraldine and her husband were friendly, welcoming, yet gave me the space I needed. The room is generous- a kitchen and ensuite, extremely well presented, cleanliness excellent, with lovely food for breakfast/ snacks etc, and good quality toiletries (ie cleanser, shampoo etc). Bed was really comfortable.

Ana and Daniel were both lovely and very welcoming. They helped us with everything and provided goods to make our stay easier and more enjoyable. Their apartment is located right next to a tram that takes you directly into the city, which was great for our visit. Would definitely recommend staying with them!

Ana and Daniel are lovely hosts! They gave me many tips on what to do in Melbourne and helped me out whenever I needed it! Their place is really nice and clean, I would always come back!

The location is good, just 10 mins's away from city(by tram), quiet environment that are so fits to live and stay. Both Ana and Danny are super friendly, gave me lots of advice that are so helpful and heart- warmmed. Home feeling! Strongly recommend and hope to see you again.

Ana and Daniel are really friendly, and the house was indeed very clean and cozy; not to mention the big bed that they had. They fill me up with information here and there and as and when I asked them. Had a short stay, but nonetheless, a great and comfortable stay. The location is good with just a 5 minute walk to the nearest tram stop, which takes you to the city in about 15-20 minutes. Thank you Ana and Daniel for hosting me. Highly and undoubtedly recommended for other Airbnb traveler.

It was a short stay but the experience was as good as before if not better. I enjoyed very much the wine and cheese session. Should do this again.

Ana's home was great. The bedroom was clean and the bed was gigantic--more than enough room to stretch out after a long day. Ana and Daniel were both very hospitable, made us feel welcome, and provided helpful advice for what to see/how to get around. Getting into Melbourne downtown from their place was easy. There's a tram pickup just across the main street that takes you the whole way there. Parking is kind of a bummer since it seems that nowhere in the city has free street parking during the day, but the $11 lot was a good solution and we felt safe leaving our car there in the day and on the street at night.

We enjoyed our stay and felt very welcome at Ana and Danny! Both have given us a lot of tips on the area. The apartment and rooms is manageable, but very clean and organized. The bed is huge and very cozy. We also have the option of gyms genutzt.Super!

Ana and Daniel are so lovely and friendly! They helped to make our stay best. The room was super clean and comfortable! The bed are fluffy and good enough for two people! Thank you ! See you later!

My partner and I really enjoyed our time at Tamla's- it was absolutely perfect. The location could not have been any better, within 15-20 minutes of leaving the front door you can be in any of the hot spots of Melbourne including the CBD, South Wharf, Lygon Street and Brunswick Street as well as walking distance of supermarkets and Asian restaurants and just a minute drive from the eastern freeway for day trips. The accommodation itself was lovely and quiet with the privacy of the bedroom/bathroom upstairs with living areas, kitchen and the balcony downstairs. Tamla and Scruffy made our time even more enjoyable. Tamla always provided us with heaps of handy Melbourne advice and was always up for a chat and a laugh. It was an overall great airbnb experience, thank you so much! :)

Tamla's house is so beautiful. I really think it is perfect. I really liked the house and Tamla. She was really nice and kind. She always helped us with many things. Her dog is really friendly too. I think the real house is far better than the photoes she posted on Airbnb. The location is also good. But need to take a train to go to city. We could also walk but it will take more than at least 30min. Anyway I recommend this house so much!

Me and my girlfriend Emma had a great time staying with Tamla! Her house is lovely and she made us feel right at home, often going out of her way to make sure to make sure our stay was one to remember! Thanks so much for making our first few weeks in Melbourne such an enjoyable experience.

Tamla is such a good host, it's almost hard to believe. From moment one, she was warm, inviting, interested in getting to know us, and excited about showing us Melbourne. She is one of the kindest people I have ever met. Also her dog Scruffy, who I've heard (cheekily) from Tamla previously has gotten even better reviews than she has, is maybe the best dog ever. Her home is incredibly beautiful, in a fantastic location right next to the train and the Yarra river. When my husband and I return to Melbourne, we know exactly where we want to stay. Can't recommend Tamla, Scruffy, et al high enough.

We really enjoyed our stay with Tamla. She made us feel more than welcome. The neighbourhood was cool - close to the city but also green and near interesting places, such as the Abbotsford Convent. We stayed with Tamla for a total of four weeks and we felt really at home. Her dog Scruffy is super cute too! We would highly recommend staying here.

Our place to come back and visit Melbourne, always a pleasure!

Tamla had a lovely place to stay that we really enjoyed. She and scruffie (the dog) were both super friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again, excellent value for price. Getting around was also super easy.

This was our longest airbnb stay so far, and I can't believe how lucky we were to find Tamla! She's a perfect host, extremeley caring with us, making us feel so comfortable during our stay...She shared her love for Melbourne by giving us all kind of information about the city and the area (thanks to her we discovered amazing places!), and we spent really great moments just talking about travels, music, food...the room is very comfortable, with plenty of space for our lugagge; the bathroom is very clean and spacious and the kitchen is very well-equipped (we enjoyed cooking there!). The neighbourhood is great, we fell in love with the area because it's quiet and you can walk along the Yarra river, but not very far you can find some restaurants, cafes, and even a supermarket. Less than ten minutes walking there's a train station that takes you to the center. Great place to stay while visiting Melbourne, absolutely recommendable!

Phil is a flawless host, and his place was perfect for my needs - a quiet space looking over the yarra for a great night sleep, yet on the doorstep of bustling Collingwood. Highly recommended

Easy arrival, comfy room, friendly host, all good!

Phil's place was very clean and nicely furnished. It is located rather close to many establishments and definitely located at a very convenient neighbourhood. Phil has been extremely helpful in providing us with tips on where to visit. He made us feel at home and was really very friendly. It would be lovely if we could have spent more time chatting with him. Thank you Phil for the awesome stay!

Phil was very welcoming and helpful and the amenities and location are superb.

Phil was a very friendly, thoughtful and helpful host. The room was great - just like the photos and the balcony overlooking the river was a wonderful peaceful bonus! We opted to enjoy the local cuisine, but always felt welcome to use the kitchen and lounge space upstairs. Will definitely book again.

Very comfortable on a return visit

Phil was a wonderful host - ver welcoming and friendly, and happy to give us our own space. The place is clean and airy, with a beautiful balcony overlooking the Yarra river and the trees.

It's a great experience with Phil, nice host and beautiful house. I have so many questions to bother Phil, he always answered timely with patience. He's so sweet to remember what I mentioned what we needed and prepared well in advance, such as the parking place, the hair dryer and our journey plan. Thank you so much Phil.

The house is very large, clean, spacious and comfortable, especially the bed and pillows very comfortable, facilities everything, a couple Van landlord very attentive service people moving, patiently for our talk on how to take the route of travel more convenient, we recommend to go not your typical restaurant, themselves unclear on the Internet to help us search, really appreciate

We really enjoyed the stay here. The rooms are very clean and neat, and are well-equipped with all necessities; the location is easy to access to the traveling attractions, shopping centers, walk 450 meters to Woolworth supermarket, many restaurants in neighborhood by 5 minute's walk; the landlord and his wife are very kind, they considered many details to make sure a better stay. We'll choose their house again if we back Melbourne!

Van and Thu were great hosts. Offering us a cold drinks on our return from shopping on a very hot day. They were also very helpful in directions and great places to eat. Location was great to the tram. Some great restaurants on Victoria st were only a few minutes walk. Next time we come we will take the time to sit and have coffee with them and hear some of their best stories. Thank you

Van and Thu are the awesome-st hosts you could ever wish for! They were like our parents.

This experience at Van's house was great, for a first time user of airbnb, it was overall a very good stay. It is observable that their house is kept in a clean, tidy and neat state. The place has lots of space to move around freely, the 3 bedrooms all joined with queen beds made sleeping comfortable for my group, just like being at home. Really enjoyed the sun room especially, good to chill and talk with a group of friends. Thanks Van for a good experience with airbnb, would consider coming back to your home in the near future and highly recommend to a group of friends.

We loved our stay at Van&Thu's place! They are very friendly and easy to communicate with! Thank you Van and Thu for the warm hospitality - we loved the 'home-grown' fruits and mint tea a lot! They did a fanstatic job in keeping the house so neat and clean, too cozy :) Pictures shown depict the exact condition of the house. The location is great, it's within walking distance (5 mins) to restaurants, cafe, tram station, supermarkets and etc. Will definitely come back to Van & Thu's place the next time we visit Melbourne.

We were extremely happy and grateful for Van and Thu's hospitality. They kindly welcomed us into their beautiful spacious home. It is lovely and clean and very neat. It was nice to have the privacy and comfort of the whole top floor to relax and enjoy to ourselves. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with the convenience and ease of public transport to and from the CBD and nearby restaurants. Van and Thu were both extremely accommodating and very friendly and we enjoyed chatting over a cup of fresh mint tea. They were extra helpful and we appreciated their assistance with public transport and suggestions for nearby restaurants. We found communication really easy and prompt. Highly recommend this lovely place!

We had the whole second floor with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. We felt that we lived in our own house, because it was very very cosy, clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend it! Many thanks to Van and his wife!
