Nazife is a perfect host, he gave me all the information necessary to reach the place and she picked me up from the bus stop at the park near the house. the apartment is perfect, very nice and bright and with a personal touch of femininity. Nazife's breakfasts are more than complete, a mixture of Turkish and British tastes, I guess based in her English experience. I do recommend to stay there if you want to make a real Turkish life experience, away from the hustle and complications from the city center. moreover is an excellent starting point then to visit the islands of the principles, Kadikoy is also very nice with excellent restaurants and Uskudar just above has a lot of architectural masterpieces to be seen. with ferry and the Marmaray then you are connected in 20 'with Eminonu and the rest of the city. Wonderful stay
