This place is INCREDIBLE! It has so much character and beautifully decorated spaces you almost don’t want to leave the house and go explore the city. The hosts Tao and Hilal are also wonderful, their checkin process is easy and very helpful, they provide with all the information about the neighbourhood and the house. As for the neighbourhood, it has everything you could need from bars, restaurants m, supermarkets and pharmacies. Super close to public transport and makes going around Istanbul a breeze. The one point I’d like to make for future guests is that it is not worth renting a car, the house itself does not have it’s own parking and although there are several parking lots around the house, I felt as a general rule of thumb, it is much easier and comfortable to go around Istanbul using their public transport. All in all the place was amazing and our stay there was great! Would definitely go back if we are ever in Istanbul.
