We were absolutely delighted by our stay in Alper's beautiful home. The apartment is a stylish and peaceful space for an Istanbul getaway, and Alper has put a lot of attention into details, from large fluffy towels and seltzer in the fridge to beautiful hardwood floors and an impressive collection of books and artwork. Check-in was easy and flexible and communication was clear before and during our stay. Alper went out of his way to greet us and chat with us, to make dining recommendations, and to check in periodically. A perfect location in one of Istanbul's most charming neighborhoods, within walking distance to dozens of restaurants and coffeeshops, with easy and frequent public transportation to more central locales. Comfortable bed, excellent hot water and water pressure, and a nice workspace for business travelers. We would choose this property again on our next visit.
