Our stay in Volkan's apartment was great, Volkan is a fantastic host, the apartment is good value, and close to Taksim. Because we a silly, we arrived at 3am in the morning - but Volkan waited up and warmly greeted us before explaining everything we needed to know about our visit to Istanbul.

The room itself is just as expected - appropriate to the price, considering its proximity to Taksim. Basic, but clean and welcoming after a day exploring all the wonderful things of Istanbul.

Volkan is the perfect host, attentive and available for any need. He even took us out to a local place for a drink - awesome!

Thanks Volkan, we really appreciated everything you did for us!
