Parking for a family car was not supported so street parking was only option but allot of clear ways and resident permit parking close by.

Thank you for your feedback, Joanne! We’re glad you enjoyed your stay overall and appreciate you noting the parking situation. Street parking is available nearby, though we understand it may not always be as convenient for families. Thanks again for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back in the future! - BS Team
This property had everything we needed and was perfect for the family. It was clean and modern with a fully equipped kitchen/laundry making our stay easy and convenient. It is also pet friendly which allowed us the ability to have our furry family with us as well.

About the host
Hosted by Boutique Stays Accommodation Group
Established in 2006, Boutique Stays is a reputable Melbourne-based property management company providing short to medium term accommodation for guests looking for corporate, family, and pet friendly stays. Boutique Stays began as a small, home-based operation born from a desire for a more appealing accommodation option for business travellers where guests could open a window, sink into a comfortable couch, enjoy fresh air from the courtyard, or cook their own meals rather than staying in a basic hotel room. Boutique Stays has grown to offer a portfolio of more than 60 high-quality homes and apartments located across almost 40 of Melbourne's most iconic and popular neighbourhoods. We provide guest-ready properties catering to family groups and the corporate sector where guests want the comfort, space, value, and amenities of a private home. We welcome guests travelling for leisure and business, as well as those who are temporarily out of home while building, renovating, or getting insurance works completed.
