Murat’s place is so near to all the important places to visit in Istanbul especially Galata area. Yet it is tucked away from the busy touristy streets. There are a lot of nice cafes and interesting shops nearby. It’s just around 5 minutes walk to Galata Tower and Istiklal and there are tram stations nearby too.
I love the place the moment i saw it and it was exactly the same if not better than in pictures. It was so cozy and we felt right at home. I wish i stayed longer than 3 nights.
Murat was a very helpful and kind host. Always prompt in answering any queries i had. He made sure we had a pleasant stay at his place. He even helped to keep our bags while we went to Bursa after checking out from his place!
I would definitely stay at Murat’s place if i were to come to Istanbul again ❤️
