Positives:
Umut and his colleagues were good hosts and their communication with us was really fast when we needed them and very helpful. Also the location of the apartment is in the heart of Istanbul so it’s the perfect location for tourists (a couple minutes walk from Taksim square).
Negatives:
I was really disappointed with the state the apartment was in. The black mould on the ceiling in the shower, the sink which didn’t drain properly so we had to resort to use the kitchen sink to wash our hands and brush our teeth, the sofa pillows had weird stains on them and the window in the small room doesn’t shut properly, the second room feels very claustrophobic due to how small it is, the wifi which was very unreliable and slow and the general uncleanliness of the apartment was a huge let down.
The pictures shown are quite deceiving and i wouldn’t stay here again.
