My friends and I highly recommend staying at Ugur’s place! It is in a very nice residential locationjust off the Bosphorus River and has nice restaurants like Lokma and Suttish in close proximity. It is away from the hustle and bustle of the main areas like Besiktas & Sultanahmet but should you time your trips well, getting to the main tourist attractions shouldn’t be too long a journey. The apartment itself is very spacious with two floors with two bedrooms on the bottom floor and living area on the top floor and has a lovely view of the Bosphorus and the bridge. Ugur is a very responsive host and was kind enough to be let us check-in well before time.
