Didem’s place is exactly as seen in the photos, well-furnished with all the amenities (hot shower, hair dryer, laundry machine, coffee-maker). The check-in was very easy, as Didem met me upon arrival was at 1:00 AM to give me the keys and show me the apartment. Whenever I asked for assistance during my stay, Didem responded in a timely manner and rectified any minor issues. The apartment is a short 3 minute walk to Taksim Square, with lots of restaurants, shops and grocery stores on the same street. My only advice would be to bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper, because it can get noisy at night in the neighbourhood. I would definitely stay at Didem’s place again next time I visit Istanbul.
