It was a great host and value for money! Definitely recommend!
The apartment and builsing was completely new and renovated. The location is perfect, 5 minutes walk from loud and touristic pedestrian Istiklal street, where you can find everything. There were at least 4 shops (3 mini markets and 1 supermarket) within 1 minute walk away from the building, which is great. Numerous restaurants and cafes/bars are available within 5 minute distance. Metro is 8 minutes away on foot.
Communication with Ekin was also great, I had a few comments regarding the room amenities which the housekeepers fixed immediately. He was very responsive and tried to accommodate every request at his earliest convenience. Although the area is very quiet, noise isolation from other rooms isn't perfect. But you usually don't sit in the room, and for this price the apartment exceeded my expectations. Thank you, Ekin. I will definitely come back
