Murat's place is the perfect getaway for your stay in Istanbul. The location is superb and everything you can wish for when coming to Istanbul. The Galata-tower is just a few minutes away, and the area where the apartment is located is surrounded by nice shops, (coffee)bars and restaurants.
The apartment is very spacious, the beds are so comfortable and the two bathrooms where a great surprise. We stayed there with three people and had enough space. The apartment has everthing you need while staying in Istanbul. The apartment is decorated so nicely, when the sunlight hits the living room in the morning you feel like you've landed in a Pinterest-blog ;)
However, the best part about our stay at Murat's place was his immense hospitality. From the moment of booking we had contact via Whatsapp and I could ask him everything about our stay in Istanbul. Murat arranged a transfer from the airport (SAW) to the apartment, but due to bad weather conditions we had to land at the other airport of Istanbul (IST). Murat immediately arranged a new (great!) transfer, and was waiting for us (two hours later than planned) with a big smile in front of the apartment. We immediately felt welcome.
Murat, thanks for everything. We will be back in summer time! ;)
