Melinda was great! She was very communicative with us and very open with her house. When we got there she even had new sheets for us (still in the package). While we were there, there was another young man from France that had an extended stay in her upstairs room. The den we stayed in has all sorts of resources for San Diego. When we attend Comic-Con next year we would definitely be more than OK staying with her again. I would recommend her to anyone.
