Wow, what to say? I'm really happy I chose Aysen's place as my first stay in Turkey. I was coming at a time that was probably not easy for her-- the earthquake had happened about a month back and friends and family of hers had been affected by it. However, not only did she not cancel my booking (which I would have understood given the situation) but nothing was out of place. The room was well prepared and ready when I came. things were as described and I could smell the sheets were freshly washed. Practical amenities apart, Aysen was kind and helpful.
Her place is on the 4th floor without any lift and she helped me get my luggage up on the day I arrived. She got me chocolates and milk and didn't take money for them. The day I left she called the bus agency to ask for pick up points, helped me get my laundry dried fast with her drier machine and gave me her Turkish coffee maker as a memento when I was leaving. And her dog Chainni is just adorable. Overall, I loved my stay. thanks Aysen
