Robin’s place in Istanbul is perfect!
We were a group of 4 and found the place up to our standards.
Pros:
- Location is PERFECT! Quiet enough street that is maybe 5 minute walk to lively scenes
- Place was clean
- Wifi was good even with 4 people connected to it
- Hosts were easy to reach
- There is a small balcony with a view of the bosphorous
Cons:
- Be prepared to go up 6 flights of stairs with your luggage to get to the apartment (there is no elevator)
- One of the beds doesn’t have a door, it is in the common area with curtains for privacy, but no door.
P.S. I would highly recommend going with the shuttle service that Robin recommends from the airport because the place is hard to find for local drivers.
