Yakup and Kagan are very attentive hosts, they helped us with all, waited for us for almost two hours late at night when we first arrived as our plane was delayed. The apartment is very clean, well equipped and spacious. It has a gorgeous view of the sea! Tuzla is a great place to stay in Istanbul. It is calm, with thousands of restaurants and cafes, with very friendly and welcoming people. It felt more like living at a seaside spa than in a huge city of Istanbul. Yet, the connection downtown is cheap and simple, so we did not miss any of the history eighter. I am definetely coming back!
