My sister and I stayed with Ester while I looked for apartments in the city. She made coffee and set out breakfast for us every morning, which was an incredible help.
Ester checked on us to make sure we had everything we needed. She even called us after we left to make sure we made it home alright, which we thought was very thoughtful!
When I told Ester I found an apartment in her neighborhood, she offered to show us a nearby store for value furniture. I'm happy to be moving to Ester's neighborhood and hope to see her again sometime!
I will recommend her place to friends traveling to NYC.
