We were a family of 7 and stayed in Istanbul for 10-days. Giorgio’s house was literally perfect for us. The photos were very accurate. Firstly the location is in the heart of Sultanahmet and about a 5 to 10
min walk to all the touristy spots such as Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. Giorgio also provided airport transfer which made it so convenient as we were a large group. In terms of safety, we felt pretty safe. There is some noise since it is Istanbul and a busy city but that didn’t bother us. Shan, who greeted us at the home provided us with the warmest welcome I have ever had from any AirBnB I’ve ever stayed at. He gave us a tour of the lovely home and showed us the ins and outs of the home and important info about the city. Giorgio and Shan both were so timely in getting back to me if I had any question. Over all I’d definitely come back to stay here over and over again!
