This place is beyond adorable and very easy to find/ access. I am a female solo traveler and felt safe walking in the neighborhood all times of the day/night.
I was greeted warmly and shown everything in clear English.
I had a bit of trouble with the pick up due to my spam filter- but it was fixed in a manner of minutes with a quick call.
As other said - the place is quite loud due to night life. This was fine by me as I was in Istanbul to explore such things and also bought earplugs.
The place might be a bit tight for two friends since the bed is a double and the couch isn’t comfortable for sleeping. This is noted in the description but I know folks don’t always read.
Shower and toilet are western style which isn’t always the case in Istanbul.
Airbnb is about feeling like a local and spending money in the neighborhood- which this place helped me do :)
If you are headed to Istanbul from a different time zone- don’t worry as restaurants there are open until 4am and are delish.
I enjoyed my stay here and would stay again!
