During my time in Istanbul I stayed at two different properties listed on airbnb, but both were listed by this same host. This property, like the other one I stayed at, was a great place with friendly service and no disappointments. The location was really nice with incredible views of the sea on one side and the Blue Mosque on the other. The service was very competent and hospitable. Although I didn't meet the host personally (the properties I stayed at are hotels, not the home of the host), my interaction with him though airbnb's website was always professional and timely. He answered all my questions very quickly, which was so helpful in transit when I didn't have much time to wait for a reply. Thanks for a good experience in Istanbul!
