We went expecting to meet a host, we came away with a lifelong friend. The apartment is a short walk from Istiklal Street and Taksim Square, from where it's easy to get around the city. The apartment is clean, compact and tastefully done up. We were happy to be surrounded by books. The apartment is up one flight of stairs. It is fully furnished and has all the amenities for a fantastic stay. The bed is comfortable, with pillows and crisp clean sheets. The wi-fi is great too. Kenan is easy to communicate with and helped us with great recommendations for local food places. Highly recommended, we would love to come back.
