Emre's apartment was cozy and convenient, the perfect place to spend a month exploring Istanbul while working (great wifi). The apartment itself was very well equipped and contained so many nice touches and lived-in comforts. The view of the Bosphorus was superb, and I found myself taking far too many pictures of it. The park below the balcony was full of chill gatherings most times of the day, and the bedroom in the back was a quiet and comfortable escape to sleep. At the bottom of the hill was all the bustle and nightlife of an active neighborhood. Top of my list for a place to stay my next time in Istanbul.
