Very good host, even before I got there, he was already messaging me to outline all the details for check-in. Self-checkin was very easy because of this. The apartment itself was very clean and spacious as it could get in the area it’s located in (Sultanahmet). The apartment was as described, complete with dishes and pots and pans in the kitchen. There is a vacuum and mop too for self cleaning. The owner also checked in mid-stay - we asked for more towels and we were provided with them within a few hours. Bathrooms were very clean and spotless too.
Overall, a wonderful stay and if I come back to Istanbul, I’ll be staying here again :)
