We stayed in the apartment for two weeks. It is in a very central location- buses and taxis are close by. There are local shops to buy necessities from very close as well as a few local eating places. The apartment was simply furnished with the basics and had most of everything we needed. It was very clean. It has no air conditioning and is a 4 th floor walk up apartment, no elevator!
Communication with the Gulriz was in the main efficient and helpful. It was lovely to be met on arrival at the apartment and she ensured that I was well settled before she left- a very nice touch. She also arranged an airport pickup, which again was appreciated. Also appreciated was the akbil pass which allowed us to use public transport efficiently- thank you.
