From the moment my daughter and I walked through the door we felt a warm welcome in the way the flat was presented. It felt homely and cosy, with fresh flowers to greet us. And I was comforted by the thought this was going to be our place for the next 10 nights or so.

The privacy and being able to come and go freely without feeling like we're disturbing anyone was the main reason for choosing this little beauty; as well as affordability and public transport which was surprisingly a pleasure to use, although it is only a 15 minute walk to the heart of Fremantle. Another surprise for any Catholics, or anyone for that matter, was a welcoming little convent where I enjoyed daily Mass - about a 5 minute walk away.

Apart from all this, the beds were comfortable, the aircon was a welcome luxury in the cold evenings and although the amenities were quite simple we had everything we needed.

I think this little place was the foundation of the great experience we had of Fremantle. I feel homesick for it ...

Thank you Jess and Ruby for all your kindness!!
