Most important thing about this place is ITS A REAL APARTMENT. so many people in Istanbul put Hotels on airbnb saying they’re apartments. I hate that crap. This place is actually a real comfortable apartment near taksim. It’s cozy and feels like home. He even came to the apartment to get the key when I was in a rush to leave and told me goodbye on the way out. Both very thoughtful and wanted to make sure my stay went well. I would stay here every time.
