Great place to stay in Istanbul. The room is just as advertised, everything was clean, and it was nice to be staying in a more typical, residential neighbourhood of Istanbul.

I never met Giuseppe, but Mustafa is the main guy hosting people, and he was extremely nice and helpful. Very accommodating of different check-in and check-out times.

I definitely recommend this place if you want a less touristy experience outside of Karaköy, Taksim, or Old City. It's a bit of an exhausting uphill walk from the closest bus stop (Fener) when getting home late at night, but well worth the money!
