Beautiful historic building in lively Kadikoy. Engin and his friends have all pitched in to help him with his ambitious restoration project. His enthusiasm for every detail comes from him hand making practically everything in the house and having a fun story to go along with it. This has clearly been a project of great passion and it’s charming to hear just how much love went into the build. The bay window room is large, airy and has great natural light. It’s calming energy comes from the soft colour pallet and organic materials used to design the space. The large double bed is extremely comfortable as are the soft cotton sheets that dress it. The internet was strong and stable for my stay (I had a few long video calls without any issues). The location is perfect, your just a short walk from all of Kadikoy’s bars, cafes and restaurants. If you want to see the European side, it’s just a quick 10-15 mins walk to the ferries. I’d definitely stay again :)
