Ali was a terrific host and allowed us an early check in and gave us a detailed map explaining locations and how to get there. The location of this apartment is just amazing...I would grant an additional star * for it’s location. You are right in the middle from all the sightseeing venues, we walked to all these with kids (10 & 6) in tow. Amazing restaurants, markets etc nearby...a supermarket right in front of the apartment. We will definitely stay here again when visiting Istanbul. Thank you Ali!
