Me and my wife stayed here for a month so our review will be helpful for long stayers.
Apartment: Very quirky, trendy and cool. It’s decorated really well, the kitchen has most things you need and the lounge is very comfy, has Netflix for those cold nights in. There is also enough workspace for remote workers such as ourselves, the Wi-Fi is pretty good for Turkey standards.
Location: Absolutely perfect. You are literally in the centre of Istanbul next to everything you could want to see. Tram stop is only a 7 min walk away, you could go everywhere from there but me and my wife walked most places, it wasn’t that far.
Negative: The place is a bit aged, some of the wooden flooring makes a lot of noise. There are just things in the house that needs replacing as it’s aged or is coming off such as the sink in bathroom and kitchen. Not big issues though.
Apart from that, we had no complaints whatsoever. Meric is the best host ever, he attended to all our needs with no hassle whatsoever, we felt at ease knowing he would help us if we needed anything. We made some great memories in Istanbul and his flat was part of it!
Tessekur ederim Meric! Hope to see you again brother.
