Dilan without a doubt the best host I ever had, she is absolutely wonderful. She was always available for advices and gave us valuable tips for our stay in Istanbul.
The apartment is lovingly decorated and we felt very welcome. Indeed, the quarter is not the most attractive area. Instead it reflects daily life of Istanbul's residents. We found it very authentic and would recommend it if you do not want to experience only the touristic hotspots.
I would definetly book again and can recommend the apartment. Thank you so much, Dilan!
