After having issues with another airbnb I booked this one @ the last minute. Kerem responded quickly, assisted with translation when my cab was lost & was incredibly welcoming upon my arrival. The staff, Murat & others are also incredibly helpful & friendly & gave great suggestions on must to do items in the city & yummy places to experience food wise. The airbnb is centrally located a few blocks from Taksim. It is very clean & this room is cozy, cute & comfortable for two with the basics needed for a short stay. Being on the top floor with a terrace was a nice bonus. Busy location but super convenient to use as a base for exploration. Book it! :)
