Answer:

He makes it difficult to leave.

Explanation:

Nestor is the King of Pylos, who Telemachus meets when looking for his father. Nestor demonstrates how important hospitality is for the Greeks, and as Telemachus arrives, he is showered with gifts and ceremonies in his honour. In fact, Nestor's hospitality is too overwhelming, not even allowing Telemachus to go back to his ship to sleep. This causes Telemachus to avoid visiting him again on his way back to Ithaca.
