My family and I had an amazing holiday in Turkey thanks to Osman and the lovely apartment. Visiting from Canada first time, I was not sure what to expect from Istanbul and Turkey in general. I must say that the holiday exceeded our expectation. Istanbul was clean, organized, friendly and beautiful. Osman's apartment is exactly as described in the post. The bedroom with a view of the Blue Mosque was mesmerizing and I often found myself sitting there looking out the window and listening to the Azaan.
Osman was very helpful and lifted our luggage up four flights of stairs. If you have young kids or mobility issues, the stairs may be an issue but outside of that, the apartment was perfect. We especially appreciated the clean and tidy look of it. It is also extremely close to Taksim Square which made ideal for doing all the touristy stuff. We will definitely be back!!
