My stay with Merrian was so enjoyable, I cannot say enough good things about it from start to finish. Merrian greeted me with warmth and welcoming. I felt comfortable in her beautiful home instantly, cooking and enjoying the garden patio in the back. The location is perfect, a quick ride from the airport, 2 blocks from a street filled with restaurants and 25 minutes walk into downtown/the boat docks. I felt like I really got a good sense of the town from staying with Merrian. Merrian herself is interesting, intelligent and fun. We went to the beach together for day. She ensured that I was set up to enjoy my stay in Perth and I am very thankful I got to stay with her. Her place is first on my list when I come back to Perth.
