Mahyar was a great host. I definitely recommend her place. The room is a good size with a big window, small desk and large walk-in closet. The bathroom is nice and clean. You also have access to laundry and a full kitchen. The home is warm and inviting with nice decorations and family photos to make you feel at home. Mahyar is sweet and hospitable. She is very happy to give advice and is great to converse with. She goes out of her way to make sure your stay is the best it can be. The location is perfect. It is within a 20-30 minute walk to UCSD and there is a shopping complex directly adjacent to the house. It has grocery and department stores as well as restaurants and a movie theatre. You will love this place!
