We enjoyed our stay at this apartment. For such price, there is no better choice. Would like to say that the location is 10/10. There is a good infrastructure: many small shops that open 24/7+ not that far supermarket Sok if you need smth that you can't find in a small shop ( we needed some specific products and at first had a problem to find a bigger grocery store even by maps, but all the time this shop was 5 mins away). Metro is like 10 minutes away, a bus stop is like 5 mins away...But we have reached all places by our feet enjoying surroundings.Location is perfect. The flat is almost like on pictures( there is even an oven in the flat that we could not find on pics).
I recommend this apartment for your stay in Istanbul. It exceeded my expectations. Some bits of advice:
-Keep fridge temperature on maximum otherwise, the ice there can start melting.
-The surroundings are quite but heater can be quite loud at night so better to have earplugs with you. Maybe if you make temperature lower it will be less loud.. I did not have a problem with it but my bf did( but with earplugs he had no problem)
-The water is warm, but the weather was a bit cold when we were there. To have a good hot shower you need to find the right position for water tap ( turn it on the maximum left but not to the maximum up somewhere in the middle). Hope it helps:D
Emin and his friend were very hospitable and friendly. very nice people. If I came to Istanbul again I would stay at Emin's apartment again.
