A beautifully restored old Istanbul flat in the middle of everything. High ceilings, quiet bedrooms, lots of space and a modern bathroom with great water pressure and instant hot water. The flat is a short walking distance to the metro, major bus routes and a taxi stand. The street is charming and feels like the old Pera neighborhood of Istanbul. It was winter when I stayed there but the heat worked great. I used the modern kitchen and the washing machine. I stayed in the large bed and it was comfortable. There are fans and air con for summer months. The neighbors looked after me when the host was away. That being said Merthan was a super host and contacted me daily to check up on me. I met him and he answered all my questions. He assisted with a SIM card and local things to do. This was a fabulous stay and I really enjoyed just having a cup of tea to unwind in the living room. I highly recommend this unique apartment , kind host and super location.
