Staying with Ian and Amy was like staying over at your aunt or uncle's house. They are friendly, warm and welcoming but also give you your time and space to yourself. Ian gave me a lift into the city on my first day which was a great help! I met a few of the other visitors who were also staying there and they were equally a pleasure to get to know over breakfast. I had a room to myself, one bathroom to share, and there's also fully stocked kitchen and living area. The bus stop to Murdoch train station is literally a 3 min walk and from there, the city is only 20 mins away by train. Just check the bus timetables first because they can be infrequent sometimes. I found car rental to be the easiest option.
