We had a good stay in Akif's place. The location was very convenient, right next to Galata Tower, and to a tram stop and the ferry stop, so getting anywhere was super easy. The flat itself was comfortable for our family (2 adults and 2 kids), although it is located on a busy street it was very quiet. The only downside for us was that the kitchen didn't have many dishes and utensils. The communication with Akif was very good, and he also offered us to arrange our transport from and to the airport which helped a lot. Definitely recommended!
