This designer apartment is located right smack in the middle of Melbourne CBD. My photos don't do justice so if you want to go ahead and look at this listing click here.
The space is 62 sqm and is probably one of the biggest Airbnb apartments we've stayed at. Located in a building from 1910, this renovated warehouse space with 3.5 metre high ceilings is the perfect place for those who come to visit Melbourne for shopping, or for business.
According to the owner, no one lives here so this apartment probably serves like an extra income for him or something. He provided all the usual stuff and added earplugs too since the apartment is facing a busy street with tram bells ringing every 5 mins or so.
Location is king! The apartment was very easy to find thanks to this H&M store right across our building. Like I said earlier, it was in the middle of everything so you don't necessarily need to get on a tram to get around the city.
We rarely used the kitchen since there were a lot of restaurants nearby. I find it cute though that the owner has this random collection/obsession with gourmet herbs and spices.
I forgot to take photos of the bathroom so I just grabbed these from the listing. There were shampoos and soap provided but Paolo said some were already expired so we did not bother using them. Haha.
Our stay in Jamie's chic apartment was overall fantastic. I didn't have any problems sleeping (note: dead tired) despite hearing the trams pass by all night. Checking-in and out was a breeze plus we really couldn't complain about the location, it was excellent! Highly recommended when you're flying to Melbourne for a weekend or so.
