Hilal is a SUPERHOST there is nothing she will not do to help you it's a real pleasure to meet such a gifted lady and talented person too. Her appartment is well equipped and very clean in an excellent location. As a budget traveller it is the ideal place to stay in Istanbul imho. I have stayed here twice and I won't ever consider staying anywhere else. This lovely corner of Uskudar is an oasis a heavenly place to relax. Thank you Hilal
