Honestly my best Airbnb experience. Initially booked for a week but stayed a month because it was great.
Firstly, Nazli and Demir are incredible hosts. Very accommodating, incredibly responsive.
The location is fantastic, right on Rihtim with a short walk to the ferries and bus depot but surprisingly quiet. You do get some intrabuilding noise from other apartments but it wasn't a problem - just signs of life.
The apartment is cute and way larger than it seems in photos. It's very comfortable with everything you need, including fast and reliable internet. I was there during a snowstorm and it was super cosy and we didn't even have all of the radiators on.
Some furnishings and amenities are a bit worn but they seem to be improving, as we even got a whole new couch swapped during our stay.
It's great value and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be available next time I'm in Kadıköy!
