Although we didn't meet Dunya during our stay in Istanbul, she answered all our messages and she was ready to support us in anyway she could. Her father waited for us in the apartment. He was very nice and helpful. He spoke good English. We had a minor problem with the drying rack & hangers (not available) that was solved the next day. The apartment is situated in a nice & safe neighborhood with many shops and restaurants - very close to 'W' Hotel & Migros (a big supermarket). The apartment is new and looks very much like in the photos provided. Most of the things in the apartment are purchased from IKEA. The bed is very comfortable, there are lots of pillows, bed sheets & towels. The building, despite the fact that is old - is very safe. Also very nice neighbors. Besiktas (the area where the apartment is situated) is easily accessible from most parts of Istanbul & Ihlamur street
( the apartment is right next to it) is well known to taxi drivers. We enjoyed our stay & we hope to meet Dunya next time we come to Istanbul.
