My friends and I (5 of us) had a wonderful stay in Istanbul and in Ömer's apartment. We were really happy with the location of the apartment. It's exactly as it is written in the description - it's near the Taksim Square and the Istiklal Avenue with lots of shops, bars and restaurants. Life is there! The apartment itself was really clean, very bright rooms, neat, bed linen and towels were fresh. We were glad to have an air condition in the apartment as in July the weather is pretty hot. In the flat we had everything needed, from varieties of coffee and a tea to different snacks and even bottle of wine and water in the fridge. Ömer was thoughtful, thank you! Check-in and check-out were so convenient, we could just lock the door and leave whenever we wanted. Ömer was always helpful in case of questions. Overall we liked the flat and a host, and we had a great time in Istanbul
