Beautifully decorated and clean apartment. The view from the balcony is like no other and the ability to take a walk overlooking the Bosphorus was really nice. Close to many restaurants and well stocked grocery store...also the bus stop is a couple step away from the entrance of the apartment, can’t get any better!! The kitchen is extremely well stocked with everything you’d need to make coffee, tea, breakfast or dinner. As are the bedrooms with extra pillows and towels. Ali is very polite, nice and very friendly, you can see that he loves and is proud of his home which makes you feel like you are not just renting a place but staying at a friends place. Communication is excellent, we arrived later than expected due to traffic and he still was there waiting for us in person. We also requested to to leave later and he was accommodating...like I said very nice and professional. I already recommended this lovey place to my friends and would recommend it to anyone that is looking for a nice elegant comfortable place to stay while in Istanbul.
