It is a very beautiful en big house. We were with 12 people, 4 of them were cbilderen. We had enough space for everyone. The appartement was very clean and neat.
We spoke a few times with Yakub through the phone, he sounds like a very nice and respectful man. Unfortunately we did not meet Yakub, but a lady (We think the cleaner).
The lady was different in communication then Yakub. When we checken in we made a deal with Yakub that after checking out we leave 3 small bags (all we had) in one of the rooms and pick it up later.. so we can still go to some places in Istanbul. Unfortunately when checking out de lady did not let us leave the bags in one of the rooms.. but outsider the house at the entrance next to the lift. That was a pity because we had a different deal with Yakub.
Anyways.. it was a beautiful house with a great location. It was hard to find the appartment. Even the local people From the bars bevind the house (200m away) did not know the address. We were Lucky there was Turkish man who called Yakub or the lady (not sure) and brought us to the appartment.
Also unfortunately the women(cleaner) did not speak a single word of english. It was hard communicating.. she was talking Turkish while we were talking English.
