My family (husband and 2 kids) and I loved Emir's apartment in Istanbul! Emir and his wife were gracious to greet us in the apartment at 1am. They showed us around the apartment and even had some treats waiting for us after our long journey. We all slept very good in the comfortable beds and linens. The apartment is quiet and located on a great street with easy walking distance to shopping and restaurants. We loved the outside area in the back of the apartment and utilized this area most nights for sipping wine after a long day of sightseeing. Emir was very easy to contact throughout out trip. We felt at home in Eimr's apartment and we would 100% stay there again on our next trip to Istanbul.
