I had a nice stay at John's. My room was spacious and comfortable, and the little balcony off my room was a nice bonus. The table accommodated my needs to spread out and work and John kindly let me swap the provided office chair for a taller wooden chair from his own room. The Internet's good and the cat's handsome and sweet!
The location was convenient for everything I wanted to do. There are Carrefour, Șok, and other small grocers nearby, and I'd gladly eat at Saray Lokantasi any day.
John is all smiles all the time; a really positive and funny host who'll go out of his way to make you feel comfortable. I'd gladly stay at his place again.
