My husband had surgery at Northridge Dignity hospital and I felt very fortunate to find Esther's place within 4 miles. Cal State Northridge is also very close by. Esther's place is just as described, and provided basic, quiet, and clean accommodations for our one night stay. The bed is extra firm, but I especially appreciated the cotton bed linens. The neighborhood is nice and feels very safe. Esther greeted us kindly at check-in.
