7 days in Istanbul - with Hatice's apartment as our home for the week was fantastic. We could use hours just looking at the view. We visited Galata Tower - but at Hatice's place we had the same view every day. The apartment has the perfect location, easy walking distance to all the places you will want to go. The neigborhood is cosy and friendly - both people and cats was curious and friendly.
Hatice is a wonderful host, and we had a god chat at her new cafe (that will open just around the corner later this year).
We got some great recommendations, and enjoyed every minute of our stay in Istanbul. we will highly recommend other to try a stay at Hatice's apartment. Thanks again Hatice!
