The Away Suites apartment was perfect for the 12 days that my daughter and I stayed. We stayed for 12 days.

Great location: The apartment is right next to the Park Bosphorus, less than 5 minute walk away from Taxim square. There's a yoga studio down the hill in Cihangir.

The host: Orhan and his team were wonderful. Orhan gave my daughter good directions and tips for getting there as she arrived before I did. Orhan stayed in touch with my daughter via What's App. I arrived very late, so I took Orhan's offer to arrange for airport transportation. That worked out very well as we both took the spacious Mercedes van to the airport upon our departure. Orhan was very helpful in advising us about getting around. He loaned us his transit card, as we used the public rail system which was excellent. We were very independent and if we needed more guidance, I know he would have been very helpful.

The apartment: The apartment was as described, clean, comfortable and a good value. The added bonus was we had daily cleaning service.
