Nelly was a great host. My husband and I stayed in the first bedroom up the stairs (2nd floor, below her 3rd floor flat). Our bedroom was more like a studio; we had a queen sized bed, two bunk beds, a couch and sitting area, TV, kitchenette, and private bathroom with a shower. It was very clean and comfortable. It was so quiet at night - I didn't even know until the last day that she had a newborn! The area is a couple blocks from the nightlife, easy to stroll to, but far enough away for it to be quiet. Nelly couldn't have been nicer. She let us in at 11:30pm, was helpful with ideas of what to do in Istanbul, gave me advice on shopping when I called her mid-day, and served me a great breakfast on the last morning. Thank you so much Nelly! All the best to you and your family, and especially 8-day old beautiful Arya!
