Extremely gorgeous hospitality and crystal clearish clean environment. Tiny yet warm and cosy place that fulfills everything that you should expect from a house for a short trip in Istanbul. The place is located so centric that it makes every landmark in the European side of Istanbul easily accessable. 5 minutes of walking gets you Istiklal Street and 2 more carries you to the subway station in Taksim Square that you can reach everywhere you want to visit throughout the city. I can sincerely state that hands down this place was one of the best places in the European side of Istanbul for its price range. Engin was an exquisite host that you can easily reach within the every hour of a day. He’s very enthusiastic and willing to solve your problem if you have any, and not only about the house but also about anything about the city itself. Owing to the fact that Istanbul is an alive city even during the nights (marketplaces, nightouts etc) you couldn’t be more safer where the house is located. An excellent place for a people of two / couple. I would definately visit Engin once again even if I’m not staying in his place. I’m glad that I made a friend in Istanbul through this journey.
