This was by far the most interesting and beautiful airbnb I’ve experienced in Istanbul. Packed with amenities, fantastic books and artifacts, and the all-important readily available hot water!
The approximate 100 stairs leading to the apartment were daunting at first and I would recommend packing lightly to get your bags upstairs. But by the end of the week, we became a bit acclimated and weren’t breathing quite so hard upon reaching the top.
I appreciated the privacy of Jason’s place, too. We did not really hear the neighbors, so I felt that was reciprocal.
Everything in the apartment was clean and in perfect condition. It was not like other Airbnbs in which I’ve stayed, where it appears as if the owner does the bare minimum vis-a-vis maintenance and cleanliness.
Jorela was very amicable and communicative. We felt secure knowing she was just a text away.
