Hatice was wonderful. When we checked in, she was there to greet us with Turkish tea and snacks. It is quite reassuring to be greeted by the person in the airbnb profile picture and Hatice greeted us at check in and explained everything we needed to know. She also provided us with great advice on where to go during our stay. the apartment was as advertised in pictures. clean and functional.

the view of golden horn was amazing.the location is very close to the tram and the famous istikal street. she also arranged for transport to the airport for a reasonable price. i wish i could have stayed longer in hatice's apartment and instanbul! take care hatice!
