My stay here was excellent. The hosts were very responsive to all of my questions and answered every question in a timely manner. They also offered to accommodate my need for a pickup, as I did not have a vehicle. 😊 The apartment is very nice and conveniently located close to Taksim Square and Esteghlal St. There are many opportunities to visit local historical monuments. The reception and the berry café personnel were wonderful, I enjoyed the free breakfast and the delicious salads. The staff is very friendly and easy to approach. They were very gracious in helping me with my luggage and setting up a Turkish phone line.
Salih, one of the receptionists, is very friendly and responded to all my questions about the area. He recommended a lot of places to visit, safe places to enjoy a traditional meal, monuments like the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and other places of interest. As Salih has also lived in New Jersey, he brought his international experience to the table. He gently repeated the name of Turkish food and places to me 😊 and he kept me apprised of curfew changes as well. Thank you very much and I will be looking forward to many repeat visits!
