Hasan's place is in the perfect location- close to Taksim square, many restaurants, Turkish baths, Galata tower, and Istiklal Street for shopping. Hasan was very easy to communicate with. He greeted us at the door even though we arrived at 2am our first night and made sure we were comfortable in the Airbnb. He gave us great recommendations for places to visit and eat at. We had a wonderful stay in Instabul.
