My family of 4 stayed at Esameldin's 3rd floor apartment. It was spacious, clean, and well equipped for light meals and a tourist stay. The rooms all had fans or air conditioning so even on a hot summer night it was very comfortable. The third floor walk-up did not prove to be a problem (and taught my kids a good lesson on how to be good city neighbors.) If mobility is a challenge for you keep in mind this may not be your best option. Esameldin is a responsive and accommodating host. We had a very late arrival and it was simple to get in and settled. The neighborhood, which some people might be concerned about, is safe and well maintained. The MBTA and commuter train are about a 10 minute walk. We've already referred my brother and his family, we would stay here again and are grateful for her hosting us.
