In my time using airbnb, I have never experienced such spectacular and thoughtful service from a host as I did with Ercan.
When I asked on the first day if there was a travel adapter in unit, Ercan had one delivered straight to my door. When I unexpectedly became unwell, Ercan was able to help locate the best hospital with English speakers and even offered to arrange a ride for me. I did not know that an Airbnb host could be so gracious.
Service aside, the view from the balcony cannot be beaten. It is even more magical than it appears in the photos.
The location is also top notch. I spent my first two days of Istanbul in the trendy Beyoglu area, but I have to say Ercan’s place in Sultanahmet cannot be beaten. This Airbnb is central to tons of restaurants, has a little convenience store just up the street for daily needs, and is just around the corner from tons of attractions like Blue Mosque, Ayasofya, Topkapi, Basilica Cistern, and more.
If you are lucky enough to find this Airbnb available during your stay in Istanbul, you must take advantage and book ASAP.
