We stayed a week at Cigdem’s place and it we loved it. We would have stayed there longer if we could. It was so comfrotable! The place looked new, very well furnished with cozy furnitures, the floor was heated, the kitchen had everything we needed, the bathroom was big and everything was spotless. We really liked the neighborhood. Lots of supermarkets and restaurants nearby, but the street in itself was very very quiet. It also felt very safe there. It’s a bit far from the sightseeing places on the European side, but the train and metro station are at walkable distances. Sightseeing wasn’t the purpose of our visit this time, so it was perfect for us. The hosts are very nice and friendly! They checked up on us periodically during our stay to make sure everything was well. We had great communications. I would definitively stay again if we come back to Istanbul!
