What can I say! These hosts are the ‘real deal’. A delightful space full of colour and warmth. I was treated like an old friend coming to stay. It cannot be overstated enough that this experience really touched my heart. Their space is filled with eclectic pieces to delight and make you feel you are sharing something way beyond the norm. Hande and Emre have created a magical life of music and art and they share this with enthusiasm and kindness to the world, what a rare gem in an already amazing unique part of Istanbul that is Moda. If you want a stimulating and full on immersion into the world of Turkish hospitality then share even just one night with these generous beings. This part of Istanbul is hard core exhilaration, with all the famous Turkish flare and an exquisite assault on all five senses. Expect stimulating conversion and don’t shy away from being totally involved in this experience, but be aware that the intensity and full passion of the Turkish mindset doesn’t suffer fools who are disturbed by the noise and clamour of people fully engaged in life. Afiyet olsun!
