Doruk was a wonderful host. From our very first interaction he went out of his way to ensure we would have a very memorable holiday vacation in Istanbul. Above and beyond is not saying enough for the many things Doruk provided my family during our stay. As there were six of us all arriving at different times and dates, Doruk ensured we had transportation awaiting us at the airport and provided early and late check in/out to accommodate our arrival and departure. Location was perfect for first time or returning visitors, easy walk to ground transportation, great food and best of all, the daily walk across the Bospherous bridge and into the heart of the city. Amazing views every day! Upon our arrival Doruk had crafted a great document for getting to know Istanbul with recommended tourist points of interest as well as local haunts to get you off the beaten path and just enjoy Istanbul the way the locals do. Highly recommend to anyone interested in great accommodation, perfect location and very gracious and welcoming host. I'll stay there again should I find myself in Istanbul again in the future.
