First, the location was excellent for shopping as it is very much connected to the Mall of Istanbul. Other than that you need a car to go around. We checked in earlier and checked out later. Thanks to the host for that point.
However, the apartment was not clean. It was dirty and unhygienic. Flooring was sticky and dirty. Glasses were all full of spots. We had to purchase cleaning tools and detergents. My wife spent half a day cleaning and washing floors, bathrooms. It was not what we expected.
We even purchased bedding sheets, pillow cases & towels as the one provided are of different colors like if we were in a shelter and they were not clean. Pillow are worn out.
