I spent 5 wonderful days with Elif in her apartment situated in Instanbul,Turkey.Contrary to all I had heard before about the negative and risky parts of hosting,I was suprisingly impressed to meet a lady who offered us everything we needed for a perfect holiday in her native city.Everything looks identically as in the picture,the cleanless was perfect,as we were in a pharmacy,the host was sweet and always asked us what we needed to feel comfortable.The place is easy to find and quite close to the main attractions of Istanbul.The neighbours were friendly.On our arrival,they offered us not only their friendly presence but also the traditional tea and food cooked on the spot for us too.Elif is a very kind host and she has some relatives who welcome us and who were good and friendly as well.I have nothing to complain about.A 10 for all services she offered,a 10 for her as a wonderful person.I really hope that we shall have the possibility to come again and spend some realxing days in the Secret Garden next years too.Thank you,Elif,all my best and respect! Greetings and thank you for the opportunity to know that we can make the most wonderful friendship in spite of different cultural backgrounds.Special thanks to airbnb to make that possible.
