The apartment is exceptional when it comes to location, design, furniture and equipment - 5/5! The place is in a quiet and safe neighborhood. It is close to Besiktas and Nisantasi center by foot.
One inconvenience: when we first arrived the shower door in the bathroom was broken. We had to contact the owners and they got it changed - but we had to use the shower without a door for 2 weeks which was very inconvenient. This could have been fixed before we came or the host could have mentioned it at least. Also the address was wrong which made the check-in really stressful as we had to check every apartment building in the street.
But all in all, we had a great stay at Tugba and Ali’s wonderful place and would recommend it to anyone who is planning a long-term stay in Istanbul and has the necessary budget. You won’t regret it!
