My 3 weeks stay at Ekin's place was great! The apartment's location is comfortably reachable by several means of public transport which allowed me to learn Istanbul's transport system better. The place is perfect for single travellers and couples. The internet in the apartment let me do my work remotely.
Ekin is a very helpful and careful host. He was always in contact when I needed to ask something and managed to adjust to all my needs.
The building is new and there is a nice common terrace on the floor where it's possible to have nice meals out.
There is a BIM supermarket over the corner where I could buy all the needed essentials and a big METRO Cash&Carry very nearby with a variety of fresh products.
There are also many cafes and restaurants close by where it's possible to eat out.
