Julie was a fantastic host. She replied quickly to my queries and really helped me to settle in for my 3 month stay in Istanbul. The location is great, very close to Taksim and Istiklal Street with an abundance of shops, restaurants and nightlife and some great local shops next door to Greystone. As a solo female traveller I felt safe here. The accommodation was clean and very comfortable with some great quirky touches and the view from Apt 4 is just fab. A big shout out to Faruk (building manager) and Kaan (Julie's son) who were also on hand at the drop of a hat if anything was needed. I'll definitely be back!
