For me this accommodation was perfect. A beautifully decorated, extremely clean apartment, equipped with comfortable beds, a fully equipped kitchen, a lovely balcony full of flowers. The host provided us with linens, towels, all very clean, shampoo, shower gel, soap, hair dryer, iron, washing machine, electric kettle etc.
The apartment is located in a quiet area, far from the crowds of the tourist area and easily accessible from the Kadikoy port area by bus(8A), or by foot. On foot, I covered this distance in only a quarter of an hour maximum. From the port of Kadikoy there are means of transport to all corners of the city, both in the Asian and European parts and in Princes' Islands : subway, ferry, buses, taxi, metrobus. In addition, there are stations here for Havaist and Havabus, the buses that run hourly to Sabiha Gokcen Airport and Istanbul International Airport.
Around there are many places where you can eat something, a small patisserie with goodies right on the corner of the street, grocery and fruit and vegetable shops.
The host's brother welcomed us very nicely. He is a very kind, polite man, always available for any questions or concerns you may have and very respectful of his guests' privacy. As long as I stayed there, he always made sure that we were fine, that we were getting around the city or that we arrived safely from the airport or to the airport when we left.
I will definitely come back here. I highly recommend this accommodation due to the location, the neighborhood where I felt safe and, especially, the host.
