We had a wonderful stay at Celal’s apartment. It’s conveniently located in the heart of Sultanhamed and within walking distance of Istambul’s main attractions. The area is safe and quiet, with nice shops and restaurants.
The apartment is small but quite comfortable and has a wonderful view of the Bosphorus. What we liked the most about our stay was Celal’s hospitality and helpfulness. He came to our rescue when we arrived in the city (we got stuck in Aksaray and were unable to get either a Uber nor a tramway ticket!). He replied quickly whenever we texted him for information. He also gave us baklava during our stay and a wonderful gift when we left Istambul. A wonderful host, the best we’ve ever had!
We’ll definitely stay at Celal’s apartment again when we go back to Istambul.
