The location of Ahmed’s house is wonderful for tourists and travelers. About 10 minutes walk to the ferry and Kadikoy bus stations and metro. The AC was installed in my last couple of days and that made a huge difference. I think the bathroom and kitchen could use a bit of a renovation but they’re fully functional as is.
The room showing in the pictures is already rented to the flatmate Zeynep. A wonderful lovely person. But the other room I got is also ok. It has a bed, a table for work, and a hanger.
Ahmet is a wonderful host. We had some lovely conversations on the first day and helped with some suggestions.
The house is on the 4th floor, and like so many building in old neighborhoods in Istanbul, it doesn’t have an elevator. This was super ok with me but it’s an important thing to be noted.
I was able to work from home with the internet connection just fine during the day. This was an absolute relief.
Thank you Ahmet and I wish you best of luck.
