Danny's apartment was perfect for our group. It was comfortable, especially the beds, and we loved the location. It was an easy walking distance to the Australian Open tennis tournament.

Taylor Swift getaway
We stayed at Dannys apartment for 4 nights so that we could take our 17yo daughter and her friend to see taylor swift at the MCG. it was a fantastic stay in an absolute gem of a location. it was an easy walk back to the apartment from the mcg. what was most special was that we had a view of swan street and there was an awesome mural on hugos wall of taylor swift. we saw many fans line up to have their photos taken against the wall. we also saw the fans walking back each night from the concert with their special outfits and light up wrist bands. we were spent many hours looking out the fabulous large art deco windows of the apartment looking onto swan street to see the excitement and buzz of swan street and tay tay fans. location fantastic. super easy shopping at coles, fabulous gelato, spelt free pizzas, grilled burgers, wine bars, our roof top bar and bbq with coles kebabs and hot spa to soak off 3.5 hrs of tay tay. historic building with many stories - my step father in law was born around the corner and remembered visiting the dimmeys store! memorable building so many fabulous memories. thank you danny, we look forward to coming back and visiting again. we look forward to hearing more about your tower project :-). see you next time. tammy, brian and amelie.
