We live in a tree lined street half an hour from Melbourne City in Preston.

I have been accommodating students from France, Austria, Colombia, the Netherlands , The US and Brazil so far and it has been great. It can be handy I fluently understand French, Spanish, Dutch, German and of course English :).

The house has a lovely front and (huge) back yard, with vegie patch and veranda in a quiet tree-lined street, close to PRESTON MARKET, TRAM, TRAINS and BUSSES and SHOPS and restaurants around the corner. Close to the lively High Street.

We have fast speed ADSL Broadband

There are 2 rooms available.Both medium sized.
The kitchen is well equipped.
There's a cozy lounge room with a fire place and a nice and clean bathroom with shower.

I am happy to come and pick you up from the airport at your arrival and help you get familiar with the big beautiful city of Melbourne. I am sure you will feel at home easily.

Friendly greetings, Mariani

House Rules

I'd like to ask you to keep the house clean. Just common sense like leaving the kitchen clean after cooking, tidy the bathroom and clean your own room regularly.
Music is fine as long as the volume doesn't interfere with others or with the neighbours.
Having friends over is fine, but it will be nice if you can let me know.
Feel at home and make your stay a happy one!

Smoking Rules

Your host is a non-smoker.

Smoking is allowed outdoors only.

How do I book?

Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
