I stayed in Istanbul in a couple of different airbnbs and this was by far my favorite one. The host was very responsive and helped out whenever needed. The apartment itself was beautiful with a lot of open space and a lot of amenities. They gave us some drinks and snacks in the refrigerator as a welcome gift which was very nice! Location is also great as it is down the street from Galata Tower and walkable to Karakoy - where there is a lot of cool restaurants and bars. There is also a tram station close by in case you need to go across to the other side or Europe or go to Asia. Overall great experience with the host and the place - would stay again - recommend this highly.
