We had a very warm welcome in Istanbul! Barbaros send us a detailled description how to get from the airport to the apartment so it felt easy and save from the beginning. He offered us tea and described the main sights and the interesting spots of istanbul. He marked it in a map and even the istanbul card for the metro was already organized!
He is a big, funny and extremly nice guy! There was a water problem for a few hours in istanbul because a water pipe was broken - Barbaros ask how long it will take and informed us directly!
He told us where we could buy amazing simit!! Best simit ever!
The apartment was wonderful - clean, big, bright, modern - no more open wishes!
He was always available for questions and always very helpful!
The area is very nice: there are busy fish restaurants and just a few minutes over the hill to the top attractions of istanbul!

I recommand this place strongly!

Thank you for the wonderful experience!
