For someone who had visited Istanbul earlier this place was just what we needed. The location was in a calm place but still close to cafes and restaurants in the area around the Osmanbey subway station. It was less than a 10 minute walk. What exceeded our expectations were the hospitality of Basar. Always quick responses. Always with smile on his face (as imagined through the texts). And always willing to beyond expectations to make sure that you were having a good time in Istanbul. Highly recommended.
