We booked for 6 nights and did not stay for even one after checking in. There was an overpowering smell of pets and the owners response was "We are pets free place and you didn’t come yesterday, so all the doors and windows was closed." So, in order to reduce the smell, it seems the owner expected us to leave windows and doors open. Really ????? Also, the listing is incomplete. It is not until you get access information the day before checking in that the unit is in fact behind a shop in a small strip mall with access to parking through a rear alley which made parking very difficult. Because of the smell, we left within an hour of getting access. When we asked for a refund, we were told to simply work with VRBO. We have not received a response from VRBO either!!! So, if you can't deal with pet smells and a terrible location, find another location to enjoy Melbourne.

Charged in US$ rather than AU$. There were balls of dust 1cm in diameter under the bed, 1 beside lamp had no globe, rails under bed were falling down, black mould and algae in the shower, shower screens were filthy, fecal splatter on the side of the vanity next to the toilet, dog hair on the dining table, 6 of the 10 windows couldn't be secured & 2 couldn't even be closed fully, SO much rubbish down between the couch cushions (including coins that were growing something green), blind in bedroom fell when checking the windows (smashed my phone screen) and was yelled at, abused and threatened by and told to leave after 1 night of my 14 night booking by the host's husband who came to "fix" the blind when she said she'd send a handyman, told to take him to court if I wanted reimbursement for nights I didn't stay... 4 phone numbers the were not connected or "not available from your service"...
