The place was just as described- no access to kitchen, although during our time there, she did allow us access for light cooking. Easy access to the freeways and in a convenient location. Liling was an exceptional host and provided wonderful hospitality as she was always very giving and shared what she had with us. I had some great conversations with her, very personable and down to earth, yet very respectful and gave you your space as well. Location is close to Torrey Pines State Beach, which we took advantage of after camp. If you're in need of a quiet place to stay, Liling's place is for you!
