It was a pleasure to stay at Elif's apartment in the beautiful and quiet neighborhood of Abbasaga Besiktas. It's in a small apartment block in a very good, central, clean and safe area of Istanbul. The apartment is fully renovated inside, warm and cozy. The view is great and you can see the a part of Bosphorus and the sea of Marmara. Elif is a great host, very kind and helpful, her apartment was fully equipped and very clean. Internet was fast and I highly recommend her apartment as a great accommodation in Istanbul.
