Excellent! A nice, modern, helpful and kind couple. I felt I was much more a friend of them than just a guest.

Amazing!! Can’t ask for a better place to stay in Tehran. Esi and Eli (and also Edu) are super friendly and helpful! I learned a bit of Setar and Tanbour from Esi too - he’s an amazing artist. They also invited me for dinner and the house recipe for rice is just awesome (but Esi said he does not disclose that haha). I would recommend to everyone if they ever come to Tehran and wanted a homestay that really gets you to know the country, you will know about the politics, music to just daily life things!

I don't feel comfortable speaking as a guest of Esi and Eli. I don't feel like I was their guest. During the period of my stay, the house was not theirs: it was ours; the home wasn't theirs: it was ours. Never, in my extensive hosting experience, have I had such cooperative, generous, friendly hosts. There is no exaggeration in what I am about to say: they are in my heart forever. I intend to return to Iran at the end of the year to see them again.
What to say about the apartment? Excellent, with everything we needed, in a spectacular location.
Anyway, I thank life for the opportunity it gave me to meet a brilliant couple, old enough to be my children, but who are, from now on, friends who are on the left side of my chest.Host reply

I do not wonder why they have best reviews, they are like a Family, Eli & Esy, you’ll never feel that you are not in your own home, or maybe better then our own home . I can say Home away from home, I got lots of love & care from them! Believe me you’ll never regret it, Never! ( All of the Iranian peoples are very lovely kind hearted peoples ) World must see by themselves.

Not only is Esi a warm and welcoming host, he is a fountain of knowledge about all things Iranian and a very talented and creative artist, strongly supported by his lovely wife Eli. So, my 4 night stay included plenty of animated discussion, laughter and the generous sharing of their personalities, Iranian hospitality at its most stimulating.
Highly recommended, an essential part of your visit to Iran.Host reply

Eli&Esi are a very nice and hospitable couple. They helped me plan my travel itinerary, recommended good places for dinner, and gave useful advices. On the first day we cooked kebab together on the balcony and it was unforgettable) Esi is an educated and interesting conversationalist, he will tell you a lot about Iran and Iranian culture. I’m very glad that I stopped with Eli and Esi))

Hello and greetings. I stayed at Eli and Esi's house for 5 nights from December 12 to December 17, 2023. During my stay, everything was perfect and I had a great time. Their hospitality, friendship, and excellent behavior was truly brilliant. The atmosphere of the house was so friendly that I really felt like I was at my home. I can say that I already miss dear and lovely Eli and Esi. I will definitely choose Eli and Esi's house to stay in the next trips.
Yours sincerely,

I'm truly grateful for the exceptional hospitality provided by this couple during my stay. Their home offered more than just accommodation; it was a genuine family-like haven. They exceeded expectations by personally guiding me through local activities, arranging intercity transportation, and even providing their debit card for convenient shopping. The farmhouse-style interior, including a spacious living room with various musical instruments, radiated charm, and their meticulous attention to amenities was evident. I relished both home-cooked meals and local cuisine. Engaging conversations on a wide range of topics enriched my experience. This was not just a stay; it was an unforgettable immersion in warmth, care, and cultural exchange.
