Absolutely wonderful stay at Julia and Tarkan's apartment! Could not have been a better location, and perfect spot to explore Istanbul from. The apartment has everything you need, from kitchen basics to a washing machine. The beds were amazing. Their manager was always responsive whenever I had questions/needed anything. Julia and Tarkan also provided a list of restaurant recommendations, which was great. Would definitely recommend staying here! I would also highly recommend the airport transfer service -- it made the arrival all the more smooth.
