Halil's place was very nice with an amazing view of an artificial lake with seabirds. We were looking for a peaceful place on the Asian side and the place exceeded our expectation. There was a very big mall at a walkable distance and we spent a lot of time there shopping and having coffee. The connection to kadıköy was quite straightforward too. Also the place was very clean. All in all, it was all we wanted in our almost 3 weeks stay.
