Melinda's place was super clean and cute. The patio is a great place to sit and enjoy some peace and quiet and maybe a cup of coffee. Her place is located in a very nice neighborhood, close to lots of things, and the neighbors are friendly. Communication throughout our stay was great. The only thing is that the shower is small (though more than adequate for what you need to do), and we didn't realize that the "kitchenette" area was in the same room as the bathroom. Great place to stay if you don't need loads of space and you want to enjoy a beautiful view from a clean and cozy room. My husband and I loved San Diego and enjoyed our stay at the Canyon View Suite!
