I stopped at Janette's place on the way back to Sydney from Byron Bay. I was firstly very impressed with the communication from Janette - so easy and responsive and really helpful as i was going to be arriving later in the evening. When i got there, Janette was super-friendly and easy-going and made me feel at home straight away. Her apartment is really spacious and clean, with a beautiful modern bathroom and comfy bedrooms. My other reason for stopping with Janette was the proximity to the Old Bar surf beach. In the morning, i put on my clothes thinking i'd have to run across the road to check the surf - but no need!! As soon as i stepped into the front room, i had a panoramic view of the ocean - just amazing. I put on my wetsuit and was in the surf in less than a minute. You can't beat that. Once i'd finished surfing i had a lovely warm shower, some nice breakfast as provided by Janette and then a friendly farewell from Janette upstairs. Just a great all-round experience and highly recommended.
