No breakfast. Mmm, so what is it with airbnb these days? Have they lost the plot or what. I mean how can you call a place (and if you look around the site you will find literally hundreds of facilities not including breakfast) a B&B if it doesn't come with breakfast? Come on airbnb, you can do better!
Now please don't think this is a slight against Yuko and Des, far from it. I mean I applied for it knowing what it offered. Fact of the matter is that it was relatively close to where we needed to be, and the price was right, so no complaints there!
Des loves a chat and is a super nice bloke. Very down to earth, he loves his beetles (cars) and has some interesting stories to tell. Yuko - we'll, we had virtually nothing to do with her.
Situated in a small backyard, the 1 bedder is quite self sufficient, and really quite private. Neither of the hosts get in your face, rather they only come to assist as needed. This is a great thing in a B&B.
The actual location worked out to be terrific in that it is pretty close to everything (Mandurah being a small place after all), with a massive mall or shopping centre not far away (Mandurah Forum), the centre of town is only 3-4 clicks away, likewise the Leisure centre is very close and so it goes.
My only criticisms are of the room, whereby some of the workmanship on the building constriction is well below par. I assume Des did a lot of it himself, and I don't blame anyone for wanting to keep costs down. Just letting future tenants know.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this place.
