No words can describe how much my family and I enjoyed and loveeee staying at Ulas's place! It was my family and I first visit to istanbul, and i think there is NO other place we would want to stay except at Ulas place because the location is EVERYTHING. I'm so grateful to have come across Ulas's place.
Everything that was said by other reviewers are 100% accurate!! Ulas's place is so so so beautiful and squeaky clean!!
the view of the medditerranean sea from the place was so breathtaking and i love the sound of seagulls that can be heard every morning.
Most importantly, Ulas was so accomodating and SO kind. he responded to our questions and help so fast.. waited for our arrival although we were a bit late! and it touched our heart, when he served us with turkish delights (twice!)! Ulas was so helpful too especially when we couldnt get taxi to the airport, he was willing to help us call taxi! (so please let him know atleast a day early if you need him to call big taxi to the airport! bcos the location's traffic is horrible, some taxi refuse to accept our uber!)
everything is accessible: food, tram, historical sites (hagia sophia, blue mosque, topkapi & grand bazaar) - its walking distance!!! but we were surprise how very hilly istanbul is... hahaha so wear comfortable shoes!
All in all, i will definitely come back when I come to istanbul again.
Oh, eventhough there was no lift, Ulas helped us carry our bags!! that was so wonderful of him, although we felt bad getting him to carry 6-9 of our bags, he insisted on helping us with it.
thank you Ulas for the wonderful hospitality!
