Me and my parents stayed in Basma's home for three nights. We were doing a tourismus trip. Since the firs moment Basma was super helpful. We got to her home on a no-fixed time (some transportation problems), but despite of this, she switched her schedule in order to help us. Basma not only gave us information about public transportation, touristic places, etc, as well as she was very friendly affable person (nice conversation, tee and cookies!!).Basma's home is in a very central point, close to a tranv satation (3 min on foot) and also close to many (fortunally no expensive) restaurants. Certainly, the next time I would go to Istanbul I would like to stay in Basma's home again.
