We absolutely loved Emrah’s apartment, it’s been one of the best ones on our extended trip so far. The location can not be beaten, five mins walk to the square and famous mosques which was amazing day or night. The area is busy without being loud, as well as beautiful and spotlessly clean. Bed was comfortable which was a relief after a few recent stays with uncomfy beds! Although we didn’t meet Emrah personally he was always available by the Airbnb app to reply to messages quickly. Checking in was a breeze, there is a shop below the room and the employees there gave us the keys as well as let us store our bags either side of the stay... we arrived early and left on a night train so this was invaluable to us. The only thing that disappointed (and meant 4 stars instead of 5) is that the listing had “breakfast included” which it turns out was an error. We found some great buffet breakfast places opposite the building though, that were also super affordable so it wasn’t a big deal, and Emrah removed this part of the advertisement when we pointed it out, as well as apologising for the mistake which was fine by us. Thanks Emrah for a wonderful stay in Istanbul, we’d really recommend your place! Ps. A final thought... the stairs up are quite steep, so if you have mobility problems maybe message before hand to be sure it’s ok for you:-)
