Prior to travel Dianne made me feel really welcome and I thought of her as a friend. I still do. Unfortunately we used our printouts about her home and access to it that we'd received from airbnb. On arriving we searched her patio for a bench for the key ,finally noticing the box on the wall. With Dianne WiFi we found the email that we'd seen in Queensland which told of the wall box but still giving the 6050 code that was on our paperwork. We assumed that Dianne lived elsewhere as we couldn't raise anyone nearby. My sister in law had a lap top and found a taxi and hotel number. All efforts to contact Dianne failed as I guess that my Sydney mobile needed to plug in a WA area code which we weren't aware of and the overseas numbers were confusing all issues. We were overdue for bed by 4 hours by then and air b@b couldn't be accessed so taxi back to the airport area.
The next morning I found the last email had come through finally with a new code. Dianne was profuse with apologies and I felt sorry that her busy life had got in the way of an earlier advice to us of ever changing codes for security reasons. We loved her beautiful home, art work and modern ,huge bathroom especially. We would stay there again . Mardi Joughin
