We very much enjoyed staying at Şükret's place during our 4-day stop in Istanbul. The place is very cozy, spacious and has everything one may need. It's conveniently located just a couple of blocks away from İstiklal and all the restaurants and shops. Şükret was very attentive and helpful, we had couple of additional requests and he provided us with everything we needed right away. Very nice and authentic old Istanbul apartment!
