Yusuf was an exceptional host. He spent time orienting my wife and I to the city, showing us the local nightlife and just being a great resource during our time in Istanbul. The flat is in a great part of Sultanahmet, quiet at night but with great access to some of the most iconic tourist attractions. Yusuf was also an invaluable resource during the attempted coup of July 2016 that interrupted our stay, as he provided context about what was developing and assisted us with modifying our travel plans as a result. Would definitely return and stay with Yusuf!
