We stayed for about six weeks in Ozkan's place and loved every minute of it! Firstly, him and Merve are wonderful hosts and were always there when needed and helped out with arranging a van to the home and all other questions that I had about the home and Istanbul in general. The house is lovely and cozy and has everything that you need and is nestled in a lovely community with restaurants, cafes and shops all around! It was my first trip to Istanbul and I would love to come back and stay in one of Ozkan's homes again as felt right at home! Thanks Ozkan and Merve and see you again, soon!
