Guest Reviews
- Wee Lin (1/5): The host has worked out a defence, refuse to address security n privacy (there were past complaints) - The place was nice but I left the place five minutes after I arrived. I didn’t have time to put down what I like because the room I booked cannot give me privacy and security, which is a basic requirement. The room has NO lock. The place advertised as a shared location but I booked a room (written facilities stated both toilet and shared toilet - you would assumed you hv some non-shared facilities). Pls see photo of booking.com page Queen Room w garden view. Minimally there should be a lock to my room for my own privacy or security. I booked the room, which should not be a shared facility where other strangers can come in. There were other people in the house but they are total strangers to me. I left within 5 mins of arrival without meeting the host and, without touching the room once I see there is no lock. When I contacted the host - he/she confirmed that there is no lock but also refused to refund, despite my room is one of the two rooms that are empty (in other words, the host didn’t turn away anyone on my account). Pls book at your own risk. I booked a room, not a bed in a dorm. Normal regards will assume a room has a lock. The host has plenty of chance to put a lock since the first feedback (I saw people commenting in past feedback). I wondered why the host chose not to do this.

- Bronwyn (9/5): Good parking down the drive off the road. it was comfortable and relaxing. - I had the room upstairs which had a private bathroom which was nice. Clean and comfortable.
- Roberta (9/5): - Tutto
- Theo (10/5): -
- Lily (10/5): -
- Carla (10/5): - Tout : le confort, la propreté (l’hôte vient tous les matins pour nettoyer), la mise à disposition de produits douche et machine à laver et cuisine, transports, place de parking Rien
- Veronika (10/5): - The house and room were beautiful, everything was clean and nicely prepared. Communication with Magdalena was great. You can also do your laundry which is nice. Our room didn’t have a lock on the door. We didn’t mind it that much but it wouldn’t be bad to have one.

- PUREVJAV (10/5): -
- Rami (10/5): nice - Quiet No lock for the room
- Leonie Mc (10/5): - The price is amazing, and Magdalena is a fantastic host. She provided clear instructions for us to get into our room after hours, and she responded promptly and helpfully to all messages. Access to a laundry and functional kitchen was super-appreciated.
- Tony (1/5): - Three booking was higher booked
There was little effort made to let me know
Eventually they called me when I was on my way to the accommodation from the airport on my day off arrival! Is stepped of a flight from the UK
Host blames the app
The app blames the host
A terrible experience all round The communication was the worst I've experienced
- amit (6/5): -
- Anna (7/5): - The house was clean and tidy, kitchen had all the necessities. The other people staying there and host Magdalena were lovely :) Was fine for a couple nights before leaving Melbourne Would have appreciated a lock on the bedroom door. It’s also quite far from the cbd. The neighboorhood is very quiet (depends what you prefer)
- Joe (9/5): -
- Isix (3/5): I am not happy with the stay. - Neighbourhood was nice. I was unhappy with this booking. Firstly, I booked a “1 x Queen Room” that was supposed to have a private bathroom & shower. However, I ended up with a shared bathroom, which was not what I had paid for. Secondly, I was particularly concerned about security. The house key was left outside the house unattended and unsecure, which meant anyone could pick it up and enter the property. Thirdly, each room lacked a lock, which meant anyone could walk into my room and steal our personal belongings.

- Meredith (9/5): Attractive, clean, comfortable - Lovely attractive home, good communication from friendly owner with easy check in, nice location close to public transport and cafes, comfortable and extremely clean.
- Samantha (5/5): Ok - Accomodating owner, despite being double booked they still gave us a room Unfortunately due to being double booked my stay was not what I had hoped and planned for and was not happy with how close I was to the other people using the accommodation, huge lack of privacy and had to share bathroom facilities with other guests
- Maye (10/5): Short - It was an exceptionally clean home and easy to get where we needed to go Nothing
- Jayden (10/5): -
- liam (8/5): - Relaxed homely vibe. Good to deal with Needs a bedside lamp. Otherwise it's great value
- Georg (8/5): -
- Colleen (10/5): -
- David (10/5): Will be back - Beautifully put together and a very welcoming comfortable home with everything you need for a perfect stay Not being familiar with Melbourne we felt a little lost as to where to go - felt we were out of the loop a little
- Mark (9/5): - Nice double story share home tucked away in a quiet suburb. Perfect distance from the office in Northcote (15mins). The kitchen had most things and there's a Woolworths about 1 kilometre away. All rooms were of ample size and the heater on the cold nights came in very handy The TV remote didn't work, could only channel surf or volume up/down via the buttons at the bottom of the screen
- Hiral (7/5): - The kitchen facilities, availability of parking The directions to the accommodation were not accurate and the property is not correctly pinned on Google maps.
- Chengfang (10/5): -
- Mahes Polis (8/5): Good - The house & location is awesome. Nice place to stay. The place itself was great and we really enjoyed our stay. The only downsides were that the bathroom wasn’t very clean that day, and unfortunately we had some noisy neighbors in one of the top rooms. They kept talking loudly until midnight, and the next morning at 6am they were knocking on doors and being loud again. I think it was just bad luck on our part, as the overall experience and location were really good
- Brendan (10/5): - Great place, highly hospitable owner. Thanks!
- Yann (10/5): -
- Paul (8/5): A good option for staying north of the city. - The house was very clean, comfortable (especially the bed) and well fitted out. Magdalena was a great host and came in every day to clean and tidy up. We had our own bathroom so the other guests didn’t impact us. The TV controller didn’t work properly. We borrowed one and showed that it was the controller not the TV. Magdalena needs to buy another one. Bedside lights would make a difference.
- Pauline (10/5): Lovely stay and great value for money. - Beautiful home, lovely furniture and fittings. Very clean and very comfortable. Would like a lock on the bedroom door and bedside table lamps. Otherwise a perfect beautiful comfortable home. Thank you for having us. Will return.
- Leon (10/5): - Lovely decor
- JIAHAO (10/5): Very good. - The rooms are nice, economical, and the hosts are beautiful. A trash can is needed in the room.
- blake (10/5): Awesome quiet clean + safe, super friendly host quiet willing to cater to all guest
needs. - Really great place to stay. Good location close to train station, nice walk to supermarket/tram stops that take you to the CBD, clean, superbly friendly and gracious host, all round smooth sailing. Good vibes, good energy & great people this is a good spot & most importantly it's safe too there's no unsavoury characters lingering around. No dislikes
- Chiranjib (10/5): Exceptional -
- Barrientos (10/5): 11/10 - It is so clean!!! There's a safe car park, wifi microwave, and fridge which I needed. There are basic utensils, soaps, towels, and bins. Magdalena was such a wonderful host 💗💗
I just hope there is a portable heater for rooms because the house heater is noisy and it keeps waking me up so i had to turn it off in the middle of the night. But the doona and blanket are so warm anyways!!! 🥰 With such a low price, the stay exceeded my expectations 🌟 Just a message for people availing this.. this is a shared house, if you're going to book this place, please don't be rude to other housemate and be kind to each other. 🤗
- Rebecca (10/5): Exceptional - I booked this place because it had good reviews and I can see why. It's great value for money, close to the 11 tram to the city, and the landlord is very friendly. I don't have anything to criticize, really.
- Jeff (10/5): Great place to stay - Magdalena was a wonderful host. She made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. We will definitely stay here again. There was nothing we didn't like.
- Karen (10/5): Perfect choice! - The house was very clean and Magdalena's service was excellent. A pleasant atmosphere. Highly recommended. Nothing
- Manon (10/5): Great stay! - The house is very spacious and clean. The host is very friendly and she gave us a very welcome feeling.
- Erwin (10/5): Cosy and nice/practical place! - Tremendous clean and decent place! Room on 1st floor with bathroom & toilet. Groundfloor with well-equipped kitchen and fully furnished, really cozy. The area/ house is at the end of tramline 11, directly to City Center (30-45 mins). Heating system goes on/off
- Maloney (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kumar (10/5): Lovely stay - The property was beautiful and well kept . Clean we had regular housekeeping, totally worth the money 😍. Will definitely be booking again!!
- Miroslaw (8/5): Very good -
- Brian (4/5): The stress caused by the mess-up with our room created a very disappointing stay. - The house and furniture are superb. There was no information for our arrival, no information that there are 2 houses on the property. The houses do not have numbers on them. Magdalena did not have a guest list. We were put in the wrong room in the wrong house, no ensuite. On recognising the problem while we were out, our bags had to be moved by a stranger. The correct room did not have sheets that covered the bed, Magdalena had to get more, again, while we were out.
The lawns have not been mowed, the exterior of the house needs attention.
- Ashwani (8/5): Very good -
- Sam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Bojana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rameka (10/5): Exceptional - Everything the house had a warm homely feeling the host exceptional I would definitely recommend beautiful home to everyone
- Allesandro (9/5): Superb -
- Lara (10/5): Exceptional - everything was clean, the house is lovely and cozy, kitchen had everything we needed, fridge with water ad ice dispenser and magdalena is just the absolut sweetest. would't want to stay anywhere else!
- Alberto (8/5): Very good - Really great ratio quality price, with a basic room with a shared bathroom in a beautiful home, in a quiet neighborhood. Good to stay one night in Melbourne. The host is very nice and available. There could be more furnitures in the room (e.g. bedside tables)
- Jeon (8/5): The Beautiful Home was an extremely relaxing and healing place to stay at. The only slight anxiety we had during our sta - A very cosy and home-like atmosphere; the outdoor area, living room, dining and kitchen areas were all nicely maintained and relaxing spaces to use. The house feels safe and is located in a peaceful, quiet area. The host is super lovely and very easy to communicate with, she made the stay such a welcoming and wonderful time. The quality of the stay would be even better with individual door locks, just for safety and pre caution, especially when occupants are out of the house! Some bedside tables would be a helpful addition too.
- Solmaria (10/5): Exceptional -
- Phuong (8/5): Very good -
- Dorada (10/5): Perfect private roomprivate room Upstairs - Good place. Beautiful and comfortable.
- Fleurette (10/5): Exceptional -
- Julie (10/5): close to all facilities that we needed other guests super friendly, feel at home - Very Clea Magdalena is a wonderful friendly host
- Teresse (6/5): Cheap city accommodation with an open door policy. - The location of the house in relation to the party we were going to was brilliant. The interior of the common areas was really lovely too. I asked for onsite parking but the parking area was so small that even though my ute is only a Nissan Navara I had an inch either side to get onto the driveway to unpack and I couldn't actually turn around in the bays in front of the 4 garages as there wasn't enough space. When I did complete the 60 point turn I took up 2.5 spaces and then had to park on the street as I couldn't get in when we came back as there were cars in their spots.
We were totally ok with sharing common spaces with other people as we were only there for a night and not using the kitchen/dining etc. However, there were no locks on our bedroom or bathroom doors and when we came home from the party late that night the front door was wide open and there was no one in the house and we were the first to leave for the night and wrongly made the assumption that the other guests would lock the door when they left. We went upstairs to our room and discovered that not only were there no locks but the doors didn't actually stay closed and we had to put the chair up against the door as the door kept swinging open all the time during our stay.
Then there was the issue of the bathroom....it said ensuite in the blurb but the bathroom was across the hall. Ensuite bathrooms do not involve a hallway. This is a private bathroom but not an ensuite. The bedroom was a lovely big room BUT someone had put two (2) queen-size flat sheets on the king-size bed and so we had to sleep on the join in the middle of the bed otherwise every time we rolled over there was no sheet as it would come with us as the sheets went to the very edge of the bed and no further. There was also only 1 pillow that could be used as the other one in the cupboard didn't have a pillow slip on it.
Not to be picky but you can't call somewhere a beautiful home when there are waist high weeds growing up the drive way and the courtyard behind the house where the deck was overgrown with grass and was a mess.
- Imran (9/5): Excellent - Clean , approachable, homelike Nothing
