Garen was a wonderful host! He came and met us at Galatasaray and then we walked together to his apartment. There were 3 of us staying in the flat, but there was still plenty of space for a few more guests. This apartment was more than we expected and we really enjoyed staying here - the place was cozy, comfortable, and bright. They have done a wonderful job renovating and decorating this property. The location was also great because we were just a short walk from all the restaurants and cafes on Istiklal Avenue. I highly recommend this place for your stay in Istanbul - especially if you're travelling as a family or a small group and would like the privacy that comes with having your own apartment.
