We have really enjoyed our stay at Engin's appartment. It's located in a nice, quiet and secure compound with a swimming pool, a cafe, a gym, a sauna and a steam bath. There are many shops, cafes, bakeries, etc. in the neighbourhood. There are bus stops nearby and it's 15 min walk to the Marmaray train stop. The apartment is exactly as it looks in the pictures. The host has thought over all the details that are needed for the guests' convenience - there are lots of plates, cups, pots and pans, washing liquids, etc. We really appreciated provided coffee, sweets, water and juice, as well as a variety of spices. The WIFI is also good and quick.
Engin is a very caring host, he picked us up on arrival from the airport, checked how we were doing during our stay and helped us to arrange transport to the airport on our way back.
I would definitely stay at this apartment next time I'm in Istanbul!
