Tansel is a wonderful host! He met us at the door and took us to our room, which was clean and comfortable. The location is great and we easily walked to the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, The Grand Bazaar, Topkapi Place, Hippodrome, and Basilica Cistern. Tansel responds very quickly to messages and will give you very helpful tips for your time in Istanbul. He can also arrange for your transportation from and to the airport. The driver he set up for us was also extremely pleasant, pointing out landmarks and also shared great information about places to go and where to avoid. We will definitely stay there again.
