Ezgi is the most easygoing, open, fun, and hospitable host (and the best cook) ever! I was so pleasantly surprised at how well we got along and how much at home I felt in such a short time. She’s energetic and funny, but also considerate and kind-so it’s the perfect mixture of quiet privacy and fun conversations. Charlie and Cazu are absolute gems 🐈‍⬛🐶 Cazu is so chonky and adorable, and Charlie will immediately become best friends with you. These three made my month in Istanbul so comfortable, cozy and lovely.
Ezgi’s home is everything I was looking for, with a comfortable queen sized bed in the bedroom, cool furniture and decor, and an amazing, open view of the bosphorus. I loved sitting on the balcony with a hot cup of tea, watching the sunset or the night views. The location couldn’t be any better-close to ferry, metro, bus, minibus, and taxi stations. There are also nice walkways by the seaside. It’s close to Kuzguncuk, a neighbourhood with lots of cozy old cafes, galleries, bookstores and such.
I’m so happy to have stayed with Ezgi and can’t wait to go back ☺️
