Kerem’s place is in the heart of the action. It’s a short five minute walk to Taksim Square from where you can take the train to downtown Istanbul or stroll down the popular shopping street, Istiklal Avenue towards the Galata Tower.
Being a girl and a solo traveler, I felt absolutely safe and secure in and around the place. The building has a lock pad. It is a bit old and the street is a bit shabby but I had no problems because the host does a great job ensuring that the Airbnb is clean. It’s nice and comfortable for two people. To my surprise, they also did housekeeping.
Furqan and Murad were attending to the visitors during my stay and were the nicest! They quickly addressed any concern that I had and were just awesome to chat with. The lobby is nicely furnished and I enjoyed catching the first signs of dawn on the patio.
I did travel off-season and snatched a good deal! Would definitely love to stay here. Thanks for your hospitality!
