I stayed with Fatma and Hasan for a month and a half (6 weeks) and it was the perfect place for me! Before I get into the details of the space, I want to say that Fatma and Hasan are by far the best part of staying here. They are both very sweet and happy to share their little slice of Turkish culture with you...I am also impressed how much Turkish I learned while I was there, thanks to Hasan. Never before have I wanted to return to a AirBnB, but I know the next time I am in Istanbul, I will be staying with them once again. Okay, now the details...the big room with the bay window is by far my favorite room (I checked them all out during my stay) as it has lots of light and a wonderful view down the street. It can be a little noisy at night, but not much noisier than most other places in the city, especially since you are a floor up from the street. The bed is comfy and the couch is a nice touch. Unlike the photos, the walls are white, not pink! There were plenty of sheets, towels, and blankets to keep me comfortable during my extended stay. There is also a heater in the room that is turned on when it is cold. The wifi is located just outside the room and is relatively fast, although can change depending on how many people are using it. I teach English online and the wifi was fast enough most days to teach on (I used my backup hotspot every once in a while). I did experience a power outage twice during my stay, but I think they are pretty common anywhere in Istanbul. There is a bathroom on the floor that you share with just one other guest. Despite there being up to 8 people in the house at one time, there was never a lack of hot water, day or night. As a long-term guest, it is asked that you purchase your own toilet paper. The common areas (bathrooms, kitchen, etc.) are cleaned about once a week, depending on how often other guests come and go. The kitchen, located on the top floor (2 floors up from this room), is small but has all the things you would need to cook a basic meal. Just outside the kitchen is the patio, which is my favorite part of the house. The patio is covered in pepper plants and is a nice place to catch some sun and listen to the call to prayer. The laundry machine is also located on the top floor and available for use. Since there are 6 rooms to rent, plus Fatma and Hasan, this house is a little bit like a mini hostel, and a great way to meet other travelers! The neighborhood is poor, a little bit run down, and is maybe not the experience everyone is looking for. However, I am a solo female traveler and I never felt uncomfortable or unsafe during my time there and am glad I was able to see this side of Istanbul. The street is very well lit all night and is very close to a main street and about a 5 minute walk to Istiklal street. Just 5 minutes away from a very busy bus stop and about 10 minutes walking to Taksim Square. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND staying here!
