Samet’s place was great. It was exactly as the photos show. The location was perfect and everything is within walking distance. There are a lot of restaurants, cafés and rooftop bars literally around the corner for the apartment so that was amazing and very convenient. The most popular tourist attractions (Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia the Grand Bazaar) are all in the same area and a short 10 minute walk. This is in a very busy, high tourist area so there are always people outside and it’s very safe! Great time and experience and will definitely stay at Samet’s place again next time I visit!
