Melbourne heaven
This property is one of the nicest we have ever stayed in and we travel a lot using this type of website. The actual property is gorgeous with every possible need catered for. We have never had the variety of utensils and products available and really appreciated the welcome pack left for us. Located in the quieter Carlton area but with restaurant and the tram literally 150 yards from the front door. Don't bring a large car it won't fit in the garage but you really don't need one. Thank you again.

Lovely flat with great management
We stayed at the Meko house for three days and wished we had had longer. Terrific location just a half block from Lygon St but relatively quiet nonetheless (for a student neighborhood). Tram at end of block to get anywhere in town. The flat is bright and comfortable upstairs. Downstairs bedroom has carpeting and heavily shuttered windows facing ground floor but serviceable as second bedroom. Good hvac, very nice well-stocked kitchenette with full-sized fridge. Good dining table, sitting area and balcony for four friends or family members. Both bathrooms good with only quirk being an unshaded window overlooking roofs and decks of other houses. As long as not standing right at window, I think not visible from them. We dealt with Katrina throughout the process and she was excellent with communications including check-in and check-out. Overall a very good experience!

A Gem...5 Plus experience
The 4 of us encountered Cyclone Kirrily on our trip and had to do an about face with our plans. Contacted Katrina and were able to add extra days ahead of our booking with a couple of quick emails. The condo's 2 bedrooms with adjoining bathrooms were equally appointed and suited each couple completely. We couldn't help but notice how many touches there were to make the stay easier for travelers. We loved the vibe of the neighborhood with its places to eat and shop. We used the tram pretty much every day and the location of a station a few blocks away made it easy to get around. We made a couple of outreach calls to Katrina and knew we had a friend nearby. We feel so lucky to have found a gem like Meko in our search for places to stay in Melbourne.

Lovely property in a great location - Highly recommended
Meko is perfectly set up and offers a lovely base to explore Melbourne. Close enough to walk into the city, but in the midst of lovely bars and restaurants in Carlton. The property is nicely scaled with all the amenities you need and even a lovely balcony to sit out on. Really enjoyed it the space with Katrina being very helpful when contacted.

Fantastic!
Amazing property in a superb and convenient location. We could not fault anything. Katrina is a wonderful host who is easy to communicate with. The location of the beautiful property is perfect for lazy strolls up Lygon Street where you can choose from an array of restaurants. You will not go hungry!!! The Clyde pub provides great pub fare and is also within easy walking distance. Public transport is at your door. The townhouse is spacious, quiet and extremely comfortable. Can’t rate it enough. Thank you it was perfect.

Stay vacation at Meko Carlton and you will not be disappointed.
The home is so warm and well-appointed - really could not think of anything more that could have been provided. Even down to the small detail of providing welcoming sour dough bread. Everything was as advertised. We were very comfortable and couldn't be happier about the location. Walking distance was wonderful to the nearby district for coffee, meals and shopping. There is off-street parking, including a garage. Great communication and very helpful when needed. Had a couple of questions during our stay about the use of the television and Katrina was super helpful to sort it out within the hour. Communicated everything accurately and concisely which was awesome to ensure our satisfaction was thought of! Not to be a deterrent for any prospective guests, and at no way reflective or disrespective of the host, when a isolated neighbourhood incident occurred throughout the night concerning exceedingly rambunctious music which was overheard throughout the dwelling, I informed Katrina whom provided advice and was extremely attentive. Overall recommend Meko as a fabulous base to stay and explore when in Melbourne.

Everything previously stated is absolutely correct. This place is in a great location, the host is friendly and very responsive, the house is comfortable and has everything you would need for a stay of any length. The upstairs/downstairs aspect is great if you have kids as you can put them to bed and go about your evening without disturbing them. The washer and dryer come in very handy as you can pack less and simply do wash whilst there. Having them be two units makes it a faster process as well. The Carlton location is amazing as you are less than a five minute walk to Woolworth's for all your grocery needs, a terrific bakery for your morning purchases and a few ice cream places after an excellent meal out at one of the many, many, many excellent restaurants along Lygon. The 1 or 6 tram lines to the CBD are about a two minute walk and makes it easy to get there. It's about a 15 minute ride. Keep that in mind if you're booking tours that will leave from the CBD. Plus, you can then get to one of the main train stations if needed. We would absolutely stay here again if we were lucky enough to make a return trip to Melbourne.
