This was my second stay with Melanie. The room, bathroom, and Melanie's home, are clean and elegant. The neighborhood is quiet and pleasant: only a short walk from the famed Cliff House restaurant and the most spectacular, natural, cliff-side views of the Pacific Ocean anywhere on the planet. Balboa Street restaurants are a short walk away as well. There's also a quaint, neighborhood Wallgreens nearby if you need something quick. Public transport is reliable, and I used it to travel all over the city during my stay. I'm absolutely coming back next year!
