What a lovely stay. The apartment is full of light and very spacious - it was bigger than I expected! The terrace is breathtaking. The bedroom is very quiet, makes for a great sleep. Zeynep is truly a superhost - very caring and responsive, she went out of her way to make us comfortable. She also was very accommodating with our checkout time, as we were flying back quite late.
We enjoyed the way the apartment is decorated - creative, funny, and cosy.
Can’t go without mentioning Cücük the building cat, he’s so sweet.
The location is perfect - on a pedestrian street with cute cafes and independent galleries, close to all the busy Kadıköy nightlife but still quiet and peaceful.
It was our first time in Istanbul and we’ve brought back a pile of beautiful memories (and a musical instrument but that’s another story :) ). We’ll be back!
P.s. if you feel like cooking, check out the Kadıköy market for fresh ingredients. So good. But of course when you stay here there’s no need to cook with all the restaurants around :)
