1. PROS
The room is right in the middle of Kadikoy, which makes it the perfect location. It has a nice balcony and you can enjoy the sunset.

2. CONS
Unfortunately, we were very disappointed by our stay in this specific place, especially considering its price (1462,11 euros for approximately 1,5 month). It’s kind of weird that the previous comments describe such a different state – however they were made 2 years ago, possibly something changed? First of all let’s talk about the stairs you have to climb in order to enter the room. In the photos provided by the site, the steepness of them is not understandable and this alone is a huge and dangerous impediment for anyone carrying a bag/suitcase or has leg problems as they are totally vertical as if you were in a boat and they are the only way to enter the room. Additionally, the only machine that was working properly was the laundry machine. The hotplate and the dish-washing machine were under-working. To be quite honest, we could not communicate the entirety of the problems with the owner as we were exhausted by the fact that every two days another problem would occur (eg the airconditioner was not working as well, which fortunately was solved after we reached the owner, or the internet connection was bad etc.). One shocking element was the fact that the boiler was in another apartment which meant that if we needed hot water, the owner should first contact the person staying in the other apartment and if he/she was there, they would turn it on (if they weren’t we had to wait for them to come home!). At such a price this is unacceptable. Also please have in mind that the shower is a little bit too small and in case you are above-the-average tall you cannot move freely. In the summer months the room gets too hot (hotter that if you are outside strolling in Kadikoy) and you have to use the airconditioner all day. The room presents many disadvantages for anyone who wants to stay long-term there.
OVERALL
The location of the room is dreamy but we wouldn’t pick this room again especially if we planned to stay for more than 5 days. Maybe we were expecting a lot but the owner’s behaviour was quite apathetic which prevented us of getting in contact with him every single time we had an issue. Generally I travel a lot and this is the first time I was sure I wanted to leave such a comment as I have never faced such issues in any airbnb that I have stayed before. We are very sorry for that but it would be irresponsible if we didn’t write this information.
