Demir's apartment was excellent. All the fittings appear new. Everything was very clean. The bedding was fresh and the beds very comfortable. The street is quiet so no problems sleeping. The checkin was easy and the communication very good. The joint owner Seyma gave some excellent eating recommendations in Kadikoy. Its a great place to base yourself for a trip to Istanbul. Kadikoy has an authentic tourist-free atmosphere. but the bars and restaurants are excellent. And each morning its short walk to the ferry for a 20 minute trip across to the European side if you want to go there. So I would strongly recommend this location and apartment.
