Altuğ is an open, welcoming host who has great knowledge of Istanbul, where to eat and where to go out and dance!
The place is open to visitors, both of his and any friends of yours, which is a nice atmosphere to have when on your travels.
One thing I would say is that if business is your reason for visiting, you might prefer a quieter living arrangement- I had a great time here but there will be music, radio, people, sound going on a lot of the time and til quite late, on the weekdays too.
Bedroom is very dark, blacked out windows, which is great for sleep quality but don’t expect to be able to spend any time in there with any idea of what the state of the outside world is like! It’s a sofa bed but pretty comfortable and the room smells nice.
All in all a great stay, would recommend to anyone coming to have fun and meet people in Istanbul, Altuğ will look after you!
All the best
