Moda88 is an oasis. The apartment is more beautiful than it looks in pictures. In the morning the living room fills with light, in the evening the larger bedroom experiences the most beautiful golden hour from the sun setting across the Bosphorus. At night with windows open on either end of the apartment a cooling breeze flows through even on the warmest nights. I woke up every morning feeling ensconced in a light airiness.
The one hiccup was the shower which got a little clogged on my first day but Güneş was constantly checking on me and when I told her the problem one evening, she came immediately the next day to fix it.
Location wise, it's in the middle of the all action in Moda, 12 min walk to the Kadikoy ferry that'll get you to the sights on the European side of the city but spend enough time here and you won't want to leave the leafy comforts of the city's Asian half.
