My son and I stayed at Melinda's place, and it was wonderful and relaxing. Melinda is a great hostess and she's very welcoming with her down-to-earth personality and we felt at home right away. She has a lot of energy and she's very helpful and generous, offering to grab something from the grocery for us if we needed anything and also letting us use her coffee maker and fridge. The Den was clean, quiet, and private, and we had our own bathroom to use downstairs. We also had our own TV and DVD player to use. Melinda's house is in a great location. I felt really safe in her neighborhood. It's pretty close to the airport, Cabrillo Monument, Balboa Park, Little Italy, USS Midway, and La Jolla.
