What a fantastic experience! Our hosts, Ozde and Omer, were gracious and very helpful. They were making us feel truly at home in their amazing cosy flat. They were forthcoming and, they also made extra effort to fulfil our special requests. They are always accessible and available. We are very thankful for their hospitality. Besides a great hosts, the flat was clean and practical and the roof terrace was incredible. The apartment had plenty of room for 6 people. The building is historical but there is good security and we felt very safe. The location is extremely practical as it is only 2 minutes away from Galata Tower in the center of Beyoglu, close to all transportation stations (metro,tram, steamship ect). It is at a walking distance to all main tourist attractions in Istanbul ( Taksim Square , Basilica Cistern, Grand Bazaar, Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Chora Church, ect). I highly recommend this flat to anyone that wants to make their trip to Istanbul an unforgettable experience. The world was at our feet. We would rent again with the same owners in a heartbeat!
