We had an extremely pleasant stay at Melih’s place. The accommodation is located in Istanbul’s most vibrant, trendy and outgoing area. There are restaurants, shops, pharmacies, bakeries, and money exchange offices literally around the corner. Additionally, the nearest metro station is within walking distance, so it was very easy to get to different places by both taxi and public transportation.
Apparently, we were the first guests in Melih’s accommodation so initially we were a bit hesitant since there were no reviews yet – however, our stay at his place turned out to be the best decision we made during our vacation in Istanbul. The apartment is just amazing! It is very spacious, nicely decorated, has very comfortable beds, and is generally very well equipped. Everything, including the kitchen and its utilities, are new in the apartment and we really enjoyed cooking in the kitchen on days we did not feel like going out for dinner. In the mornings we usually went to the bakery on the corner to buy bread and Turkish pastry, and then we would eat it at home at the dining table since the place was so comfortable.
Melih was a great and very helpful host, and the communication went great. Whenever we had questions, Melih replied within minutes. We would highly recommend this place to anyone, and we will definitely return to this place. Couldn’t imagine a better stay in Istanbul! Many thanks Melih!
