My family and I had a lovely stay at Alexis' place in Istanbul. The apartment if exactly as pictured and it is very centrally located. Alexis organised an airport transfer for us too which was waiting in the airport and took us seamlessly to the apartment. When we arrived at the apartment we were greeted by Alexis' mum who was very helpful and showed us everything we needed to know. The apartment was spacious enough for 4 of us and it is centrally located so we walked to the metro in Taksim square to see the sights in the old part of town and to the main shopping street in the evenings. We had a lovely stay here and I would recommend it to others.
