I love the "old house feel" upon arrival, it took my breath way seeing the pure beauty of the house, inside and out. The rooms were warm and cozy. I couldn't of asked for anything more. It was nice to share the company of a housemate during my stay. She was also a Bogazici student which made me miss my time at Bogazici. I pretty much had the whole house to myself and it made it nice, because if I came in late, I didn't have to worry about waking anyone up. I couldn't have asked for better place in Istanbul to stay. My best wishes to the Can (John) and his family.
