On behalf of my friend Artur, I would like to provide the following review of his stay at Sinan's apartment.
Thank you Sinan for your generous hospitality and your full-time readiness to help and outstanding promtness with resolving those minor issues that we had.
Sinan is a wonderful host and a bright person that I was so lucky to meet and be a guest with.
His apartment is located within a walking distance to the Istanbul Subway yet in beautiful and historic surroundings where you could get an inside view of what Istanbul real life is about. With a handful of markets, shops and places to eat just seconds away from this apartment doorstep you are still very close to all popular tourist places and biggest shopping malls of not just Turkey but Europe overall.
If you really want to get an idea of what real Istanbul is about feel free to stay at Sinan's place and yes, you are welcome.
