Staying at Tansel's place was my first experience using Air BnB. It was great! My friend and I had limited time in Istanbul and right when we got there Tansel greeted us with information on how to make the most out of our short time. He even gave us a local cell phone and checked in via text message that first day. The apartment was perfect and in a great location for sightseeing.
I had many little questions because I had never been to Istanbul before and even about using the Air BnB site. Tansel was so helpful and patient with me with all my questions. He never made me feel like I was bothering him. I'd definitely stay again and recommend his place to anyone traveling through Istanbul.
