Mr Okan is an amazing and attentive host. Always ensure that our stay is comfortable and attentive to out requests and questions.
The location is amazing, 3 minutes to Istiklal Street, 10 minutes or so to Taksim Square but still quiet and safe.
We had 2 year old toddler and the house is safe and suitable for him. Minimally decorated and spacious enough for him to move, unlike many hotels in Istanbul.
We were unfortunate to be in Istanbul during the explosion on the 13th of November but after that the road has more police and I guess they are more vigilant in making the area safer too. Mr Okan very kindly assured that the area is safe.
