Anita's place is 8 minutes drive from the city, even closer to exciting social hubs like Mt Lawley and it's little sister right up the road, Maylands - two cafe strips that we were delighted to explore. The park and river right at the doorstep were great - birdsong in the city! The pool is an added bonus and just right for hot Perth weather. Parking for our very tall Landcruiser (2.2m clearance) was perfect. One set of stairs was no issue.
Inside the apartment was freshly sparkling clean and smelled lovely! We were surprised by the little touches at every turn - toys, books, DVDs, colouring pencils, a train set and a ball. TV, air conditioning and wireless internet, too. Her place is stocked from top to bottom with toiletries, linen, towels, fans in the bedrooms - and we were delighted to find a freshly stocked fridge with breakfast, milk and juice. There is a range of tea and coffee, snacks, fresh fruit and even some freshly picked herbs.
It was perfect. A proper home base for our little getaway - we will be back for sure!
