From the moment we booked the apartment, Emrach & Catherine were very kind and responsive. But since we had a couple of questions prior to the booking, Catherine responded very kindly and made sure we booked what we wanted. Moreover, they made it possible for us to leave our luggage in the basement of the building (where the gym and few other facilities are to be found) before the official check-in time and after the check-out.
To be at the point where one is surrounded by Beyoğlu, Cihangir, and Karaköy, means to be at the heart of Istanbul. And additionally, to have a view of Bosphorus and to be able to reach it by foot in a few minutes, adds a sparkle to this unparalleled location.
On the street of the building there are numerous supermarkets, fruit vendors, a very nice coffee shop, an amazing börek place, a store that sells beautiful Iznik ceramics, an interesting bookstore. Just across the street there's a tram line T1 which goes to Sultanahmet or towards Beşiktaş.
Highly recommendable airbnb to all Istanbul addicts and aficionados.
