Serkan was absolutely lovely and very helpful. The accommodation is really a house on three levels and very cute/quirky. The place was spotless and the rooms all of a really good size, it was also very warm and cosy given the heavy snow. It was in one of the most HIP parts of Istanbul with a great mix of traditional, arty and trendy vibe. It was 5 mins from Taksim and the main shopping street with some great bars and cafes around the immediate area. Everything you needed was within walking distance.
I invited three guests to stay and they loved the place and the location. I would certainly stay there again and plan too.
The kitchen had all mod cons and we cooked in several times as home very cosy.
Internet was really fast and the TV offered a mixture of various language channels which was a big plus when snowed in.
Real good value for money
