Matt is a great host! He made everything from airport transfer to check in to sightseeing easy, but he also gave me my privacy! I also appreciate that he welcomes animals, as I was traveling with my dog. I couldn’t have asked for a better host!
The location of the apartment is ideal: on a quiet street but just 7 minutes walk from Taksim square and all public transportation! There are some great fruit stands and grocery stores very close. Great place to stay in Istanbul!
