As a solo, female traveller, I was initially hesitant to visit Istanbul but I'm delighted I did so. This city is beautiful, safe and very modern :) with Kubilay as my superhost, I had an amazing time! The apartment is located in a safe, lively district, a short bus ride from Taksim square. There aren't as many tourists and this lends to the advantage of exploring the city as a true local and paying less $ as opposed to the more touristic hub.
The apartment has everything you will ever need, and for breakfast there are a million things to choose from! Kubilay is beyond generous allowing use and access to almost anything in the house. I felt as if I was staying at my friend’s home and this is what he has since become, my friend. I was very well cared for and for this I am truly grateful. I ate most of my meals (the best food I’ve ever had in my life) with him,most of which he even paid for. He even took me along with his friend to catch some breathtaking views of the city and at night we discussed the best routes and places to visit the following day. He provided plasters for the blisters on my feet, on my departure he accompanied me to the bus stop and helped me with my heavy luggage.

There are countless other nice things he did for me and many other reasons why you should stay at this Airbnb. The most important to me being Kubilay himself because his kind heart shines even brighter than beautiful Istanbul.

Thank you for everything Kubilay, I will never forget your kindness and I hope to see you again some day ئیشاڵا
