Ali could not have been a better host. He really went the extra mile to help me and make my stay as comfortable and easy as possible. I left a phone there accidentally and he has gone to such lengths to help me get it back. He was on hand for the whole trip, available to help me with anything I needed. He made the trip as easy for me as possible. Really the best host imaginable. The apartment was great, really spacious and with everything you could need. The garden was a big bonus, as was the projector. Location was perfect, on a quiet street but very close all the action of Istanbul.
Highly recommended.
