Melinda kindly picked us from the airport (for $10) and gave us a tour around the surroundings of her neighborhood. If you intend to visit some of the local attractions, I'd recommend you to consider Melinda's as they are in the vicinity. Nonetheless, you'll often hear many planes fly over her place since it's near the airport. If the noise does not bother you, then it shouldn't be any problem. To be honest, my friend and I were a little disappointed upon reaching Melinda's because it was kinda different from what we saw on her page. The room was kinda dusty and everything was not in place upon arrival. But we were still glad to get an accommodation since we booked it very last minute (one day before we went San Diego).
