Better place to stay in Balat! The owner was always on the call and helped us with everything. The fridge was full of local groceries we had enough for 3-4! It was so delicious!

A very cute and cozy historic stay in Balat. The house had everything you could need and they even had a stocked fridge full of drinks, snacks and Turkish breakfast, it was so kind. There was a washing machine, which was super helpful after 7 days of travel and soap available. There were even adapaters for the outlets which was so helpful. The best part was that the host was so kind and helpful in suggestions restuarants and a great hamam in the area. I would definately stay here again. Our only regret is that we didn't stay in Balat longer because there are so many cute shops and cafe in walking distance to explore.

Everything went fine and smoothly, we didnt meet the host but the contact was very quick and very responsive. The localisation is fantastic, the fridge being filled with goods is also a very nice idea - however it might be tricky if you actually book the breakfast and expect it but at the end you have ingredients in the fridge to prepare it yourself ;)

On our request, the host organized a cake for my sister on the eve of her birthday and left it in the fridge. It was really really considerate and we were able to surprise my sister pleasantly. It was a very considerate and customer oriented gesture.

Balat/Fener area is one of my favorite districts in Istanbul. It is easy to reach thanks to the new T5 tramway and you can easily go anywhere using public transportation (there are direct buses to Taksim, tram to Eminonü, ferries, etc.. I love wandering in the streets among the colorful historical houses, and I love the mix of both popular and yet trendy vibes. It is not as touristy as other districts in Istanbul and you can really feel the special Istanbul atmosphere. Sahin has been very helpful and kind. I highly recommend the stay and I will surely come back!

The location is amazing in the heart of beautiful Balat! The apartment caters everything you need. Sahin responds quickly to questions and is very helpful. The diy breakfast set makes up for an awesome Turkish breakfast!

The fridge was filled with local produce. Everything fresh. Great location, all the necessary shops and restaurants close to the apartment. Balat is a great and beautiful district. Transport to the most famous attractions very close to the apartment (tram or ferry). The host Sahin is a wonderful warm man, very helpful. He lent us an Istanbul card. We didn't use taxis because the drivers are very cheating. As foreigners see, prices increase several times. It was a wonderful four days. Thank you Sahin :) Aga and Marcin.
