We are frequent visitors in Istanbul and knew Ozgun’s place is the place we want to be in. Located perfectly in Nisantesi, two minutes from most popular cafe in the hood, 7min to City’s shopping centre, 12min to metro station.
Flat is generous in space, 2 bedrooms plus spare room, great bathroom, functioning kitchen, spacious living room. It’s located level under ground floor, which means the air has a specific scent, after windows are closed whole day. You walk in, open the windows for 5min and it is gone. Perfectly normal for a flat at that level.
We stayed in Ozgun’s flat late November and heating was just right, as it was getting cold outside.
We were fortunate enough to also meet Ozgun’s brother Hakan, who made our stay even better. We got texts every day to check of all is good and if we need anything. Hakan offered his time and assistance during our whole stay, which made a huge difference. Highly recommend you get in touch with him if you want tips on transport, or seeing parts of Istanbul tourist usually don’t get to see.
Wi-fi in the flat is excellent.
We think highly of Turkish people and their hospitality and kindness and Ozgun and Hakan are perfect representatives of top quality hosts and great care for their guests. We will be back and we’ll stay at Ozgun’s place.
Thanks guys for making our 7 years old son’s first visit to Istanbul so enjoyable and memorable.
