Pelin's apartment was an excellent stay and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to get a closer viewer of Istanbul through the eyes of a local. The flat was well furnished, with good internet, all amenities needed and an amazing host that communicates with you regarding everything. the bed was soft, and while my friend slept on the coach he said it was also very comfortable. The heating was perfectly adjusted and did not require any tampering. I can not recommend it enough. However there are some caveats I must say beforehand. If you are mobility impaired for example requiring a wheel chair or struggle walking up steep steps I can not recommend this for your own safety. This flat is positioned on the third floor above some very steep stairs. On a side note, the water pressure of the shower is on the low end but it is a good serviceable shower.
To summarise
+ Amazing location
+great host
+great value for money
- Not good for those who are mobility impaired or struggle with steep stairs
Once again, thank you Pelin for hosting us.
