everything was great! the apartment is almost luxurious and super equiped with everything. the flat was bigger than expected, the location is central but i would say not as central that we just easily wen't home in between sightseeing. but we loved that it was in a more quiet real area away from tourist masses but close to everything. we also loved istanbul great city, our favourite part was the "asian side", you should visit if you go there. oh yeah, also communication with alexis was great! his father waited for us at the apartment, we even got 2 keys. my best airbnb experience so far. thanks for having us over. oh..and the shower was greeeeaaat!:)
