We had a really, really nice time at Hale's place in Büyükada. The room was really clean, the veranda beautiful ! Hale's place is a bit away from the center, on the way up to the forest bit of the Island, which makes it very inviting and cosy. The 20 min. walk from the center was so fun, especially at night, because of all the animals we met! Cats ( so sweet and incredible smoochy), dogs ( also very friendly) and porcupines! Hale is so nice, the breakfast that she serves every morning ( incl. in the price) unbeatable..It's like staying in a pension! We can only recommend to stay at Hale's place..the best we ever had on our travels!! Thank you!!!
