My wife and I loved staying at Lisya's modern apartment. The apt. was clean, and looked exactly as pictured. The view from her apt are amazing, which overlooks the old city Istanbul and had many mosques that lit up during night, we even enjoyed a fireworks show on Christmas day. The apartment comes with high end Miele appliances and the bathroom was clean (some other reviewers had mentioned a smell, but we did not have any such issues). She also provided fresh towels which was very nice.

Lisya was very communicative and responsive prior to my arrival. She took care of the coordination and drop off of my Istanbul pocket mifi to ensure that I had my mifi access thru out my entire trip. She also gave me hints and many awesome restaurant recommendations.

Her apartment was located in the heart of the Beyoglu district of Instanbul, walking distance to hipster musician district and modern bars, many great high end restaurants (Meze by Lemon Tree, NeoLokal, & Duble Meze), near major shopping hub of İstiklal Cadessi, and close to the Kadikoy Ferry. Honestly, the location of her apt. was amazing and we were able to walk to most places.

We slept very well the week that we were there, the bedroom was very quiet at night and smelled of fresh linen.

I was very satisfied with my stay and I highly recommend staying at her place.
