If you want to be close to the beach, it's the ideal place to stay: Just cross the street and jump into the waves. IGA supermarket is within walking distance and the bus runs regularly to Claremont Center. The city or Fremantle are easily reached by train too which is only a short walk away. I would always come back, hopefully without worrying about Corona and flights and being stranded. Lyn was very supportive during that time, she's really a great host!
