It's an exceptional experience staying in Dodo's apartment! Firstly our flight arrived early in the morning and the host agreed to let us checked in early morning without any hesitation. After the confirmation, he sent me self prepared PDF info on Istanbul, Galata area, pre arrival and getting around. He arranged bottles of drinking water, fresh grinded coffee bean (which is important for me) , local tram/bus card to make our stay less stress :) On top of that, he informed us on the weather forecast by WhatsApp message, that's very sweet of the host. The host also arrange a reliable Taxi company to pick us up on the day we checked out. Trust me that it's not very easy to get around in Turkey if we don't speak the language.
The location of the apartment is perfectly good to move around by foot to many eatery and drinking joints. Atmosphere in the day and night are totally different. Many friendly neighborhood in the morning that's curious where we come from , that's cute! They offered us to sample the bread and tea!
Will definitely recommended to anyone that's coming to Istanbul.
