Two french girls, 25 years old.
We stayed 2 weeks at Victoria and Andrew's house for visiting Melbourne.
We enjoyed our stay with a big bedroom and the clean facilities.
The home is nice and Victoria is welcoming.
The Camberwell's district is a peaceful place.Thanks a lot to Victoria.

The rooms are located in a big house, they are very nice and confortable, excellent quality/price balance. The house location is perfect, just 300m from Camberwell Station. The family was awesome, absolutely kind, nice and friendly. My experience in Australia, thanks to this family, was the best ever! Highly recommended!!
