It was a wonderful place. Absolutely kind, and very helpful. They welcomed us really warmly, were always a text away if we needed anything. Ilhan even sent us the sweetest new year gift! The apartment is in a very nice location, a few mins walk to istiklal street and taksim. It's safe, has lots of grocery stores around and is well furnished too. I stayed with 2 other friends and it was very comfortable! Would 100% stay with them again!
