Emrah really is a super host. He’s a genuinely lovely person. He’s there to help, he gave us some wonderful restaurant recommendations, and he even called and booked our hammam appointment for us. The space itself is cozy, tight for two people and large bags, which made it a little difficult to get ready at the same time. But we were not in the room long enough to mind. When we were there, there were at least five cats roaming around, which I wish I would’ve known beforehand. I have pretty severe allergies, but they keep the place so clean, I was surprised to find I didn’t have an issue at all. The spiral staircase is small and very steep, so if you have extremely heavy bags or mobility issues or maybe even children, this building might not be the best for you. Upon arrival, I was skeptical of the location, but being close to Taksim Square proved to be a good, central location for us.
