First of all if I could give the location more than five stars I definitely would do so, the place is in a clean, quiet,safe,and beautiful area, its a joy just to walk in the neighborhood there is a lot of restaurants and cafes nearby with a fantastic view, the sea and the historical places are only 5 minutes far if you go by foot .
Tensal and his mother were great hosts, they speak English fluently and they kindly helped us out every time we needed.
The apartment was clean and provided everything we needed since we spent most of our time outside. We sat in the garden several times it has a wonderful view . So if you are planning to spend the whole day exploring İstanbul and going back to a quiet cozy place to have a good night sleep I definitely recommend this place.
