Sila is the perfect host, the best you can have in Istanbul. She is super helpful and always willing to go extra mile to help you out with all your needs. We had an amazing time at her place and I would definitely like to stay again, when I will visit Istanbul in the future. The place is 15 mins walk from Taksim square, where you can access Metro and around 18 mins walk to Tophane tram station, also you can find so many shops nearby for grocery which makes it even more convenient. I would highly recommend to stay here if you get the chance to visit Istanbul and if you don’t mind a small walk to Taksim square. Thank you very much Sila for hosting us and making our stay so pleasant. Good Luck, hopefully will see you again next time.
