Hi! I’m Elly and welcome to my centrally located, ground floor, Richmond apartment. Soaked in natural light, rambling vines, carefully curated art, and 2 outdoor areas; the apartment is very quiet, considering the proximity to Swan Street.
It’s a simple 9 minutes by train and 17 minutes by tram to the City’s, Flinders Street Station. This is the perfect base for exploring Melbourne.
For breakfast you’re very lucky to have this cafe insanely close. The...

I’d love to hear your feedback, so please let me know if there’s anything you can think of that will make the place even better for the next guests. Have you noticed anything that needs repairing? or if there’s something you would have liked to see in the utensils drawer etc let me know.

The queen size bed is made up with 100% cotton bedlinen.
Extra pillows and blankets are available in the wardrobe.
Premium quality bathroom towels are provided for each guest.
Tea towels available in the kitchen.
A washing machine and detergent are available for guests to use during their stay.
The shower takes a while to heat up. Anywhere from 60 seconds to 6 minutes. It’s annoying but once it’s hot it is HOT! The apartment building uses a bulk hot water system and it is on the roof. Unfortunately this means the lower levels take time to heat up. The wasted water is then used as grey water.
The bin room is in the garage (directly under where the bedroom is). Open the gate using the key fob and enter by walking down the driveway. The bin room contains 4 skips; 2 general garbage and 2 recycling.
Gate:
if the gate stops closing it may have become misaligned. A slight upwards push should do the trick
Clotheslines:
There are 2 extendable clotheslines in the outdoor area off the bedroom. Pull to extend the cord from the base- secure in the latch on the opposite wall- twist to tighten at the base.
Kia Ora! I'm Pio. I know this property inside out.
