Zehra’s place was wonderful. It is located in a spot where it’s easy to get around using a cab and it won’t cost you too much. You are able to do your basic grocery shopping literally downstairs and across the street. Zehra herself was a really great host and made sure that she was available whenever you had questions. She even helped with recommendation.
We had a great time in Istanbul and I would highly recommend Zehra’s location for convenience, cost, and a reliable host for that side of the city where many of the attractions are closest.
