We loved staying at Melis’ beautiful apartment. We arrived very late at night and Fatih was there to greet us. He took all the time to show us the apartment and gave us useful information on where to go and eat. They provided us with fruits, snacks, teas, water and even a bottle of wine - thank you!!

The apartment is beautiful, spacious, super clean and in a safe neighborhood. It is located on the first floor, so no stairs to climb after walking streets up and down; Istanbul is hilly. Just a couple of blocks from Galata Tower and near the Karaköy neighborhood with great bars, galleries and of course souvenirs shops. We bought beautiful original paints at a Galata Sanat Gallery one block from the tower. Istiklal street is close and always fun, full of people, bands, shopping and restaurants. We found the best French bread and delicious fruit at a small supermarket nearby the apartment. Public transportation is close and convenient. Wifi is super good.

We didn’t meet Melis but she communicated with us on a daily basis. She and Fatih were extremely kind to us, helping us with transportation arrangements and Turkish Bath appointment.

There are so many Airbnb options to choose from and we were very happy to have chosen Melis’.
