Let me first start by saying the house was great value for money. It is true to the host's descriptions and has more than everything you need to live comfortably for as long as you want. A supermarket is in 2-3 minute walking distance from the house, there is a bakery right in front of the house amongst other stores that you may find useful during your stay there. My review wouldn't of course be complete without talking about the host. He is really kind and went out of his way to help us when we ran into an accident on the first day of arrival in Istanbul. He was pretty much in touch and accessible whenever we had questions or needed advice.
Our stay was quite a pleasurable one.
