Well, wow, where do I start?!
Handan, firstly, was easily the most kind and hospitable host I have encountered on AirBnB. Not only did Handan make me feel like her place was my temporary home, but she actively accepted me as a friend.
The accom ... wow. The most beautiful view of Istanbul from the Asian side? I would say so! Two huge balconies with views all the way across to the old city, truly stunning, especially at sunset. Inside is spacious, clean and has everything you need.
Also, the location is perfect. Right above Bahariye and bar street, only a few minutes walk to restaurant/market street, but also high enough to escape noise from the busy streets. Kadikoy is an awesome place to be located in Istanbul.

I truly can't wait to come back and visit Handan, I can't recommend it highly enough! Thank you for everything Handan, we miss your happy face already!
