Julia and Tarkan's Istanbul apartment was absolutely delightful! It's located in a charming neighborhood, in close proximity to public transpiration and anything–I mean anything!–you'd ever want to see, do, or eat! The apartment itself is chock-full of character! It's spacious and thoughtfully organized, with comfortable furniture, a commodious, well-equipped kitchen, and reliable WiFi. (The frescoes are stunning!) Julia and Tarkan–and their team on the ground–are consummate hosts. Communication was fast and easy, and checking in and out was seamless. I deliberated quite a bit over where to stay in the city; I couldn't be happier that I settled on Julia and Tarkan's place! Outstanding experience across the board!
