The apartment is situated in the Cuhumriyet neighborhood of Çekmekoy district, there are plenty of shops and restaurants in the nearby area, if you need to go to central of Istanbul, you would have to walk 10 mins towards Tasdelen to take a bus.
The apartment is fairly new and spotless clean, we encountered a few minor problems during our stay but all were solved quickly thanks to responsiveness of the host.
The kitchen is quite small and the tardy hot plate may not be the most convenient thing for cooking, it would be much better if it is replaced with a gas stove, there are plenty of kitchen appliances, but no cutting board, which I had to buy myself.
The internet connection is fairly fast and stable, there is a table in the living room which is suitable for both dining and working.
During our stay, there is a huge construction project going on right next to the apartment, which generated lots of noise during the day, sometimes can be very unbearable, I understand such things are out of the control of the landlord, however I think it is the landlord’s responsibility to inform the guests beforehand if he is aware that a construction is going on nearby, so the guests can make a decision whether to go ahead with the booking, sadly we didn’t get any warning from the landlord, and thus had to deal with the noise for the entire four weeks. I am writing it here in the review because I think the future guests deserve to know.
