Wow, This is such a great apartment. Here are the reasons:
1) Host and his team. Great at everything and helpful and super friendly
2) apartment - modern, stylish, and cozy! All at the same time.
3) Neighborhood - this is the best street, neighborhood for me. it's close to everything, yet it's semi quite block with super nice and cozy cafe around. Super cute street and when you leave the apartment and step outside you smile right away.
4) There is a great cafe down the street Art Smyrna - just go there, and have their breakfast, it's tasty and simple. You will love it.
Overall I loved it and Istanbul is certainly a great city to explore and learn new culture.
