Our stay at Gülşen's place was incredible! His apartment has everything you could ask for, and his communication with any questions we had was impeccable. The location is perfect being very close to Taksim Square as well as the beautiful Galata Tower, but few enough away that you don't hear the constant noise from all the commotion of that area. His place also has a very nice balcony with a view of the water where you can catch the perfect sunset! It's my new favorite place to stay when I come to Istanbul!
