I was looking for somewhere that could house my family and be able to facilitate parking. The place was cosy and comfortable for our stay. The beds were comfortable, and everyone slept well. Love the retro charm and the name 'The Warbling Magpie'.

The lock box for the keys was hard to open and close. Had trouble fitting the keys in and then closing the door.

Homely and accommodating 🤙🏻

Perfect for what we needed. Two showers helped with 4 adults and 2 kids. The little touches to make us feel at home, grateful for.

The location of this apartment is awesome, we were playing in a competition at the State Hockey Centre and could get there easily by car or walking. Lots of restaurants and cafes close by along with supermarkets etc.

Great place to stay when visiting Melbourne, loved the location.

We loved the location with an easy walk to the tram stop and the size of the property for the 6 of us. A 20-25 minute cab/Uber fare to the property from the airport, and an easy 25 min tram ride to the city and 10 minute tram to Brunswick, very central to what we wanted to do in Melbourne. There is nothing to dislike about the property, and this is not a criticism, and if you are a light sleeper we did want to let future travelers know one of the bedrooms is not fully enclosed and is open to the downstairs lounge/kitchen area. When you look back at the photo of this bedroom you can see it isn't fully enclosed, but this was something we didn't initially think to look for when viewing the online photos before booking. Some of us were up earlier than the others and we kept waking up the person in this bedroom as they could hear us downstairs. The owner of the property was wonderful, no question too hard and was very quick to respond. Thanks so much Adrian, we had a blast as we were all friends with teenage daughters meeting in Melbourne who were lucky enough to see the 2024 Taylor Swift concert.
