Pelin went above and beyong to make our trip as easy and enjoyable as possible. We arrived before the apartment was ready, so she very kindly took us for coffee to a lovely cafe nearby. Communication was very easy and straightfoward throughout our trip, which made it very easy for us to organise our time.
The apartment itself is very functional and everything we needed was provided. The only inconvenience would be that it is on the third floor in a building with no elevator, so that might be something to consider if you're carrying large suitcases. Pelin's partner was kind enough to help us carry ours, so the stairs did not bother us at all.
The apartment is in a very charming area, full of cafes and shops, only a few minutes walk from Taksim and all the major transport routes. It definitely made our trip and we are looking forward to returning to Pelin's place!
