Safa is a great host, and his apartment is located in a PERFECT area of Istanbul. The apartment is about 5 minutes walking distance from Taksim Square and İstiklal Caddesi, and guests are able to use the metro in Taksim to travel anywhere in Istanbul. Safa was very friendly, and helpful in providing tips on where to eat, how to use the metro etc. Our room was spotless upon arrival, with the promised amenities all in perfect working order. Upon arrival, Safa was waiting outside for us and brought us into the apartment where he offered us Coffee and Tea, welcoming us to his apartment and Istanbul. The hospitality shown by Safa and his staff was truly world-class. Çok teşekkürler Safa Abi!!!
