Esmé is an excellent host. Communication with her was top notch. The home was just like in the photos and very, very clean. It took only a few minutes to reach the subway system by foot which I didn't consider when renting the place but was a welcome benefit. I was able to walk to Central Park and Columbia University to do a bit of sightseeing and mass transit the rest of the time. Loved my stay, highly recommend. Many thanks for a wonderful and comfortable place to stay!
