I had the best time here! The apartment was super clean, super big for a studio, and well decorated. The view is beautiful, you can see the water from the window. The sun looks beautiful in the morning and afternoon, especially with the curtains. It’s really quiet, which is rare in Istanbul, so if you’re a light sleeper pick this one. Also the bed is so comfortable. The location is the best part!! The apartment is on the cutest street ever. Great neighbors and a fabulous restaurant right in front. It’s literally a 3 minute walk to the Blue Mosque and the walk there is insanely beautiful. The way is lined with plants, cats, and well decorated buildings. Really it was one of my favorite things. Also, it’s not in a crowded area so not many tourists walking around. All around my favorite place I’ve stayed in Europe!!
There aren’t words to describe how wonderful Celal is. He showed me the best places to eat, shop, and take photos of. It’s like a true local guide who pays special attention to detail. Super rare to find in such a visited city. Ask him about his brother’s sweet shop or a good hamam! I had a fabulous time at the one he took me to.
This is the first place I’m sad to leave. Really such a happy city with the friendliest people. You’d be wrong not to choose the best apartment 😄
