We stayed at Idil’s apartment for seven nights during our recent trip to Istanbul, and we absolutely loved it. The apartment is perfectly located, only a few footsteps away from the wonderful Galata Tower and some five minutes walking from the iconic Istiklal Caddesi. It is located amidst a very nice area in which you can find a lot of really nice restaurants and bars. The apartment is very spacious (larger than it looks on the pictures) and nicely decorated. It has a very specific charm and you feel very much part of the city when staying at Idil’s apartment. Moreover, the communication with Idil was very straightforward. We arrived quite late at night and she was there to welcome us with some very good recommendations for restaurants and bars and neighbourhoods… She wasn’t in the city the following days, but it was no problem at all to communicate with her via whatsapp. In sum: Idil was a perfect host and her apartment was the perfect place for our stay in this magical city. I recommend it vividly!
