Ram is indeed a great host! She is quick at responding and is ready to fix any issues promptly. Her flat is absolutely beautiful. It’s spacious and comfortable, warm, clean and beautifully decorated. I loved her attention to detail: good quality bed linen and towels, comfy beds, nice scents, beautiful artwork.
Location is perfect too. Cihangir is close to Taksim (10 min walk), where you can take the tube or bus from and from Tophane tram stop (8 mins). There are lots of excellent cafes and bars near the flat, literally 1 min walk. It’s also quite close to Dolmabahce palace and Nisantasi area (20/30 mins walk).
The area is quiet too, we were never disturbed at night, which is particularly valuable given how busy Taksim is! It also felt safe walking around at night.
I’d definitely recommend Ram’s flat to anyone as it’s a hidden gem, and I’d come back to stay there again.
