Murat was a very warm and welcoming host, and made a great effort to make my brother and I feel comfortable and welcome. He arranged transportation for my brother from the airport, and treated us to tea and sweets on the balcony, which was delightful. We both so enjoyed speaking with him and learning more about Istanbul and Turkey. His apartment looks just like the pictures - it was very clean, and it has a good amount of space, a nice little kitchen, a hairdryer, etc. Unfortunately, I had to work during my stay and I did run into issues using the wifi consistently. However, it seemed to be a unique situation, as there had been severe flooding a few days prior to our stay. So, hopefully, that would not typically be an issue. The apartments are also located in a very cool neighborhood. It's right near a park, cafes, and markets and easy walking distance to major sites like Hagia Sofia, the Blue Mosque, the Grand Bazaar, etc. It also has a great communal balcony. Murat, thank you so much for your warmth and hospitality!!
