“Punthill Essendon presents a compelling option, particularly for extended stays; fully self-contained apartments, some with laundry facilities, provide a comfortable home base. The location strikes a nice balance, too, with convenient access to both Melbourne's CBD via public transport and proximity to Essendon and Tullamarine Airports. I think the Art Deco charm, spaciousness, and local dining options create a solid experience for families and business travelers alike.”
