This was our first ever rental of an apartment through airbnb and our first trip to Istanbul. All of my questions were answered very quickly before I made my booking and what was fantastic is once I booked I immediately received an email full of lots of information on Istanbul. I printed this off and it was such a help on finding some fantastic restaurants and local places to visit as well as the famous sights.

On our arrival, we were greeted by the team in the office which is in the building and was shown to our apartment. The apartment was exactly as described and very clean, a lovely extra of having some food waiting for us in the fridge.

it is a perfect place to stay during a trip in Istanbul, it is close to local transport and if you really want to see Istanbul via foot you can, it takes about an hour to walk slowly to the old part of Istanbul while you look at famous sights, towers and food stalls and shops.

They were able to book a taxi for me when i left super early in the morning and there is always someone in the office if you need help.

We love love love the doors in the apartment- very rustic and beautiful.

it was a great place to stay for our trip.
