AirBNB
First time using Airbnb by Myself (doing the reservation without friends-family) and definitely it has been a lovely experience, the premises of the house are really clean, it has an equipped kitchen- good fridge space and two small balconies . Lovely natural light that spreads across its tall walls..
The balcony next to the kitchen has a lovely tea section and is also an area we’re you can share time with the cat, in general the two lovely pets are really lovely, relaxed beings that are friendly and respectful:
Our host was always their to help, I had a problem with a tooth and as she didn’t know a dentist, Ally was kind enough to find me one with her friends, the dentist was a magician (superb, Ally gives the best tips on the neighborhood )
It’s 9 Min walk to the pier and 20 lovely minutes on the ferry ( to visit the European Side for less then 0.50 usd) , which is my favorite commute to the more crowded areas .
The home is also 11 min walk to the metro station or 5 min to shared taxi - main road with plenty of taxis , if it’s raining or it’s more convenient.
Overall at Ally’s you really get the sensation of a home( not just a place they only use to rent ), the home has been really wonderful! I am really grateful with Ally for this lovely Istanbul experience …
Ps if you love art materials like myself, at Kadiköy you will always find a new mural , wonderful new cafe and several art supplies shops to delight yourself !
