First of all is to say that we stayed in Özgur's flat for one month.
We moved in a couple of days later, still it wasn't adequeatly clean or tidy. We had to remove the host's clothes and personal belongings in order to have some space for our stuff and to use the furniture etc. After all Özgur managed to arrange a cleaning lady who spend about nine hours in the flat cleaning and did a very good job. So finally we could feel cosy in the flat.
Sometimes it was a bit hard to reach Özgur and he mostly needed some time to response. We also had problems with the neighbours since they weren't informed about foreign guests.
On the good side the flat was spacious and comfortable for two people and could be easily used for four as well. Both sleeping rooms were to the back side of the house and very quiet and bright.
The flat is located in Acıbadem which is a quieter quarter and easy to walk to the center of Kadıköy, the ferryies and Marmaray (Metro). There are a lot of possibilities for grocery shopping, too.
The cat, Irmik, is a very lovely cat and likes to be cuddled a lot! You should love her, because she is the real owner of the flat :) After all we had a good stay there.
