Betul has a nice cozy place in a good location in Kadikoy. Betul is very friendly and personable and was always concerned for my well-being. We had a good time talking about art and Istanbul and our lives in her comfortable living room. The apartment is clean and taken care of and the corner windows fill the living room with light in the daytime. Down on the street the neighborhood buzzes with energy and activity, but Betul's apartment is high up enough that noise was not an issue. And it means basically anything you could want is within 10 minutes radius. Thanks Betul!
