Kerem’s place is located less than five minutes from Taksim Square but in a quite street opposite the new Taksim mosque away from the noises of the Square. However, the street is well lit and there are always people coming and going and the shops around it are open until late. So I felt safe coming back even after midnight. Also one of the team is always in the office on the ground floor if you need anything.
The room is clean and bright with windows overlooking the street which provides natural light The AC was working fine. It has a mini kitchen with everything you need: a sink, kettle, and a fridge. Also, there were 2 bottles of water in the fridge.
The wifi was working ver good. I didn’t have any problem.
Communication was very easy as they all speak very good English. And they are very friendly helpful. If you need anything, you can ask them and they will help you.
I highly recommend this place for solo travellers and couples who want to visit istanbul and will be spending more time outside. It is a great comfortable place to relax and have a good night’s sleep after a day of adventure and visiting all the historic and cultural sights if Istanbul. I slept really well as the bed was comfortable and the room temperature was perfect.
It is also near the taksim metro, the bus stops at Taksim Tunnel and the shuttle bus, hava.ist to both Istanbul airports.
I will stay there again.
