Melinda is such an excellent hostess - plenty of communication beforehand, she's present at check-in, etc. Also, she provides a most excellent breakfast featuring coffee, fresh fruit, breads & spreads, her delicious homemade quick breads & muffins and homemade jams to die for. She's personable & friendly & a joy to talk to, and we feel like we've made a new friend from our stay with her. The bed and pillows are comfortable, the bathroom is roomy with a great showerhead and lots of soap/shampoo options, and her place is lovely in a lovely neighborhood, perfect for a morning run or evening stroll. My husband and I highly recommend you stay with Melinda!
