    Spacious clean and was well equipped. Good access to trams and a pleasant 10 min walk through the park to the train. Good communication with host and easy check in and out

    Less than 300m from the tram stop so just park your car out the front and just leave it there and use the trams and trains to get around from tram stop 28. Coles is just 2 stops away at number 30 so easy to get food to cook at the unit and there...
