I stayed at Volkan’s Blue Suites while visiting Istanbul for 18 days. It was my first trip there and Volkan was very helpful with recommendations for restaurants, places to go, transportation options, and general info about Istanbul.
This place is well set up for short or long stay. A highlight was the included washer & dryer!! I was able to cook food at the studio to save a little money and Volkan knows of s good market to get essentials from.
The location is fantastic in order to see the “main” tourist sites like Ayasofya, Topkapı, and the Archaeological Museum, and is a 5 minute walk to the tram for traveling further. The street the studio is on is not very busy, so it was pretty quiet.
I hope to visit Istanbul again and will only book here since it is more than worth it and Volkan is a great host!!
10 stars! :)
