Positive: I stayed at “Home Away From Home” in Melbourne and had a mixed, but overall decent experience. First of all, the host deserves special recognition – absolutely 10/10. He is super friendly and helpful, even taking me to the nearest supermarket on my first day. He also regularly checks in to make sure everything is okay, which is truly exemplary. The apartment is located a bit outside the city center, but a train station is within walking distance, making it easy to get around. The accommodation consists of two guest rooms, a shared kitchen, bathroom, and living room with a flat-screen TV and a game console. The kitchen is functional and provides basic equipment. A washing machine and dryer are also available, which is very convenient.
Negative: However, my room had a few drawbacks. It faced a busy main road, so there was noticeable traffic noise. The windows were sealed and could not be opened, which made ventilation difficult. Since the sun hits the room throughout the day, it tended to heat up quite a bit. There is no air conditioning, only a fan, which unfortunately wasn’t enough to properly cool the room without fresh air.
Summary: Overall, the stay was positive mainly thanks to the outstanding host.
