Ercan’s place is clean and has everything you need to enjoy Istanbul. The terrace has a beautiful view and the company of friendly dogs and cats. Shops and cafes are close although the walk back up to the house requires a climb up a few steep stairs. Public transport is a short walk away. All in all the house provides a much needed respite from the more hectic parts of Istanbul and offers a very scenic and peaceful stay. We’d recommend Ercan’s house to friends visiting Istanbul.
