Yagiz was a great host; very hospitable and accommodating. My stay was great.
The home is in a great location; on one of the quieter streets but still just a stone throw away from restaurants and markets. It's a 12 min walk to the Tophane Tram and 15 min walk to Galata Tower and Istiklal Street. Good location for taxi/Uber drop off and pick up. This is important since some areas are very congested with traffic and drivers do not want to travel there.
Cons: Sometimes you can hear conversations from the neighbor late at night but it's not disturbing. You may also hear the sound of the iron doors as residence enter and leave the building but the bedrooms are in the back of the house therefore the noise is not unbearable. Master - mattress is on the firm side, this may matter to some however I slept very well.
