A perfect stay in Istanbul.
I visited Istanbul wih my husband and 3 friends. The apartment was perfectly situated in the old town and was an enjoyable walk away from all the places of interest eg Blue Mosque and Grand Bazzar 15-20 minutes away. Just outside our apartment were local shops to purchase supplys if wanted to cook at home & also some local restaurants and bars less than 5 minutes walk.
The tram was also a ten minute walk away and you can take it over the bridge into modern Istanbul .
The apartment itself was clean and had everything we needed. It had central heating and air conditioning but we didn't need either. The price was more than reasonable and we paid £123 for 2 nights for 5 of us ( we thought on booking to good to be true but it was more than good and very true !)
Tevik kindly arranged for a taxi to collect us from airport and drop us back for a cost of €30 - 20 minute drive.
We met Tevik on arrival and his manager Marion was very helpul and ensured all are needs were met. Our return flight wasn't till 6pm and Marion kindly let us check out at 3pm ( should of been 11am ) at no extra cost.
We were thoroughly impressed with our apartment and will be returning at a later date & would recommend to anyone visiting Istanbul.
We were saddened & shocked to hear that the day after we left Istanbul tgere was a suicide bombing in the city centre. Our thoughts and prayers are with our lovely hosts.
