Nahide’s place is perfect. The place was spotless, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was complete, and the view is worth a million bucks. The location is perfect for walking to all of the old town sites. Nahide’s colleague Yasin picked us up from the bus station and walked us to the apartment. (To get here from the new Istanbul airport take the Havaist bus #20 to Sultanahmet. It’s 18 lira and they take credit cards on board. It’s just a 5 minute walk from there.) This was the perfect start to our three country trip. If we are ever back in Istanbul we wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else. THANK YOU NAHIDE!
