This is a cute little apartment. It’s on the basement level, so it’s a little damp down there - we had to make use of dehumidifiers and it still felt quite moist in the air. The apartment has everything you need - fridge, washing machine, air conditioning etc. It was really clean and nice when we got there. No shower gel is provided so take your own when you go. The area of Balat is very interesting, and very different to the rest of the city. I’m not sure I would stay again as at times I felt quite nervous in the apartment - glad it had bars on the doors and windows! People we didn’t know knocked on the door in the middle of the night, as well as during the day. Despite this, we had a nice time and Balat has lots of interesting things worth seeing and is close to good public transportation.
Communication with Ozkan was good, and check-in and check-out was easy and smooth.
