We reached quite late in the night in December and were lost somewhere near Taksim and Güven was kind enough to come and get us from the main road as we were right around the corner. He even insisted on helping us with our luggage. What a gentleman! The neighbourhood is one with a very local feel and looks a bit run down, but the building is very secure and we faced no trouble on the streets. The location is superb. It is very close to Taksim square and Istiklal street and has easy access to metro, tram and bus stations, and many small cafes and restaurants. We had a really nice stay here and Güven was kind enough to let us leave our luggage in the basement common room when we went to visit places like Kapadokya.

I would highly recommend this place. It is well located, clean, maintained really well, safe and secure with cameras and automatic lights in common areas, and a wonderful and welcoming host. Thank you for having us Güven !!
