Fantastic experience. Efe was very helpful and responsive. He is an exceptional host. When I asked him if there was a nearby gym for one of our guests to do important physical therapy exercises - he brought his personal dumb-bell weight set to the apartment for our guest to use. Incredible.

The apartment is located in an energetic neighborhood (lots of shops and cafes) - and is about a 3 or 4 minute walk to the main road along the Bosphorus.

A great spot - for a great price. We knew there was not AC - but since it is on first floor - and on a corner - air flow is pretty good. There is a neat outdoor space to eat (in addition to the kitchen). There are fans available.

We (from the US) have used airbnb in barcelona, istanbul, pittsburrgh, rome, and venice. Our experience with airbnb hosts has been great - but Efe is at the top of the list.
