Helen's place was like a true modern British Bed & Breakfast in SoCal, down to the tea-time china she offers! I really loved how she decorated the room with the quaint bedsheets, towels, the nice closet space available and local area 'basket.' She allows guests to use her beautiful townhouse common space which was in a quiet, shaded area in the valley so you get a lot of peace, quiet and enjoy the nature. I've never seen someone so immaculate and take such good care of their home. Helen was very accommodating to my needs - you'll love her super loving kitty too. Highly recommend Helen to any traveler in the Linda Vista area, but it's convenient anywhere to Mission Valley and around SD too.
