Pros: Celal and İsmail are excellent communicators, and have a number of properties in the area. Clearly this is an important business for them and they keep in touch daily. They also offer a taxi to and from the airports for €35. This takes the hassle out of figuring out transportation. İsmail stopped by daily with little treats such as Turkish delights and Celal was always responsive via the Airbnb app.
Cons: Considering that this seems to be an important business I think they need to improve the property we stayed in. The place was not clean. I disinfected the sink and countertop and wiped the dirt off a wall. When we got there the windows were open no lots of flys were in. I had selected for a kitchen, but the place doesn’t really have one. There is only a hot plate, no knives, no dish towels, and no chopping board. All this could be easily fixed.
The bathroom is not nice. The toilet smells bad and I bought bleach to clean it, which didn’t help. The shower needs ripping out and replacing. It’s a weird set up of plastic adhesive tile on the floors and walls. The floor plastic came unstuck and slipped about. Looking back we should have left and gone to a hotel since the prices of hotels are currently comparable to what we paid.
The area around this apartment is undergoing redevelopment and there are some nice hotels being built. It is also an excellent location and close to all the important sites

These guys will fall behind in redevelopment if they don’t keep up.
