This is a great place to say if your are looking to experience the real Turkish culture. It is a cozy Turkish styled home with everything you need! Not only that but the location is amazing, almost everything was walking distance (Galata, Spice & Grand Bazaar, istiklaal street and so much more!) if you truly want to experience the true Istanbul culture I would definitely recommend this place. I should mention there is some construction going on outside the appt. (as of September 2021) so you might become an early riser! Can’t complain too much as the construction noise helped us wake up and start our days early aka more time to visit istanbul :)
Necla is absolutely great! She made our trip to Istanbul such a comfortable and fun experience. If you would like to learn about Istanbul’s amazing food culture she is your person! She gives amazing suggestions for local restaurants (always budget friendly & SO delicious) & other places to visit. She knows Istanbul & the rest of Turkey from a local’s point of view and helped guide us to have a genuine Turkish experience and not the gimmicky stuff you see. She is a foodie and a food guide! You definitely need to try to go on one of her food guides if you want a true Turkish food experience. You won’t regret it, she is the best!
