Gunes was a kind and responsive host. She made our stay very easy. Her apartment was in the best area of Nisantasi, on a quiet residential street and yet 2-10 minutes walking distance to all the best that Nisantasi has to offer. The building is a bit older, so expect what comes with older buildings. But that is expected in a historical city like Istanbul, and yet the host, the convenience of the neighborhood, the location of the apartment within the neighborhood all make up for it. There is also a lift/elevator which makes it easy and comfortable for travelers with luggage. Thank you, Gunes.
