Hoda was great, friedndly and with very useful hints and advice about Tehran. She was busy with work so left me to my own devices which was fine. Her apartment and the bedroom are very artistically done in a nice part of Tehran. Only drawback was the traffic noise as the guestroom overlooks over the main freeway into town.. but if you're prepared for that, this is a lovely place to stay and Hoda is a great host. Thanks
