Wonderful home from home
The photographs of this apartment do not do it justice. It is a beautiful apartment with a wonderful terrace overlooking the Bosphorus. The apartment is in a very safe area and has a brilliant local market and shops. The apartment has everything you need for a short stay, the kitchen is well equipped including an instant coffee maker and the beds were very comfortable. The television had plenty of channels and the wifi was fast.
Bahri and Nihat are a lovely friendly couple, it was like visiting family rather than renting an apartment. They had lots of information about Istanbul and it's history and took us on a trip to see a hidden gem, They gave us lovely cold melon after long days trekking around the city and asked if we would like to join them on shopping trips. They were very helpful with transfers to and from the apartment and booked us transport on leaving and got up at 6am to make sure we left ok. We were very happy to stay here and would be very happy to return.
