The apartment was incredible! It is in an amazing and central location with many places to walk to, and just a block away from the Galata Tower. There is a lot of space and light in the flat, and it felt homey, comfortable, and clean. Akif was also incredibly warm and friendly, especially to a sweet kitten we rescued and he helped rehome. We cannot wait for our next trip to Istanbul and would love the opportunity to stay here again and meet up with Akif. We're grateful to have met such a wonderful person and it was a bonus to stay in such a great flat :)
