Erhan's abode is an impeccable abode for couples and small families, who are yearning to have an authentic experience of Istanbul. The area of Bakirkoy provides an opportunity to immerse oneself in the community, while still being a mere 15-20 minute taxi drive away from the more mainstream tourist locations.
The location of this Airbnb is one of its most noteworthy features. The apartment is situated within a stone's throw of two colossal malls, merely a 2-3 minute walk away, as well as a delightful row of cafes that are equally close.
It is important to note that families with young children should exercise caution, as there is no elevator and the stairs are rather narrow. However, during our stay, we had a 3-year-old with us and were able to navigate the stairs without issue.
Erhan was an exceptional host who was very hospitable, regularly checking in on us to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. If I were to return to Bakirkoy, I'll be back at Erhan's!
