Okay, I can't help but write a big review as while I liked it very much, it it not everyone's cup of tea! The place is very stylish and bright, just amazing! The bed is very nice and soft, wifi works great, and there won't be lack of daylight as three fantastic windows provide the room with enough light and fresh air (and, if anything, there are good window blinds for keeping privacy). The place is really close to Istiklal, Galata, Taxim and all the nice places of Beyoğlu, and the bus stop is just around the corner, if you need, you can take a quick ride to the Galata bridge if you would like to cut the way to the neighborhood with the main tourist attractions (Fatih). Yasir is a very very nice and creative guy, helpful and caring host! I would like to thank him again for his hospitality! However, for those who are planning to stay here I should mention that the house is old and the neighborhood is far from being some fancy district, and thereby there are some things that some might consider to be an issue for the comfortable stay - the walls are thin, and the neighbors sometimes get very loud in the evening; also the neighborhood itself is not very tidy, especially after the Sunday market that happens just under the windows - I would say it could be both a cool thing and annoying thing for some people (and maybe it is the reason why I saw some insects during my stay - I think it is understandable and not a very big deal, but, again, it may be important for some people). However, all these things definitely make this place authentic and unique! It is a safe place, although at first glimpse it may not seem so. The neighbors were very friendly and helpful when I had troubles opening the door late in the evening. At the same time I would not recommend going up the district, especially if you are a single girl. Better go down to Galata, Cihangir, Karaköy and explore all other amazing places of Beyoğlu, there are plenty of them (and be sure to spare a while to go to the Asian side and visit Kadıköy and Üsküdar). I wish Yasir all the best and I am sure he will do everything to improve the things that he is able to improve!
