Halil's place is in a very vibrant and lively neighborhood. Really good restaurants and cafes within a 3 block radius including the train station. The area is safe at all hrs. Halil's apartment is in an older building. The room is very clean and neat. As advertised. The common areas are a little less pristine but I suppose it cant be helped given that the building itself is old. Halil is very responsive and friendly. I had a comfortable stay. Check in and check out was super easy and the other flatmates are also very nice and friendly.
