version:SQL Server 2008 R2

I have granted a user the ability to EXECUTE and SELECT for a DB. However, when they log into SSMS they cannot see the DB that they have those permissions on. What is the minimum permission level they have to have in order to view the DB?

The login is part of public server role and the EXECUTE and SELECT are at the db level.

Thanks as always.
