We stayed at Fathis place for 3 nights and we found the apartment in a clean and solid condition. Also, the location in Galata was good for exploring the city. However, after all the good feedbacks about Fathi, that we have read in advance we were rather disappointed. First of all Fathi offered a shuttle service from the airport, that was a bit overpriced so we chose to take the bus/taxi (for half the price). This seemed to displease Fathi, so from that point on the communication was really poor… when arriving he was late at the meetingpoint and the apartment turnt out to be at another address. Furthermore there was a building site right under the flat, so we woke up very early because of the horrendous noise. Of course this is not Fathis fault, but all in all he didn’t even try to put some effort in being a good host and make us feel welcome. The city is great but for another visit we will probably book a different place….
