Pros:

Great value for money, super nice staff who came to make it easy for us to check in even at midnight and patiently showed us everything in the room. The apartment is in a great location - it is very central, but on a side street where it is not noisy. So sleeping through the night is quite possible. The room was very nicely furnished and had everything you needed.

The only negative, however, was the uncomfortable and incredibly squeaky bed. This definitely needs to be replaced!

Overall we were very satisfied and can recommend it!

Cozy, central, great hosts - but the roaches ruin everything
Pros:

- Helpful hosts. We've asked for an ironing board, and they brought one immediately.
- You can leave your luggage at the reception before check-in and after check-out.
- Great location, easy to walk everywhere.
- Pretty design. The room is really cozy.

Cons:

- Roaches. The hosts qucikly came to spray the room after the first complaint, but the roaches kept coming. They are lovely people and did what they could, but overlooking cockroaches crawling over the plates, shower, and all the other surfaces is pretty impossible.
- The geyser shower only has one tolerable temperature setting, and water pressure is low. The shower head has been replaced, which is usually good, but this one is simply too heavy and falls out from the holder, so you have to manually hold it over your head. All that makes the shower process super inconvenient. There were also two unlabled bottles, which I assume were shampoo and/or showergel. They could really use those lables.

Pros:

Everything was wonderdul. The company is the best one in the district. You can always reach someone and they will be able to solve any problem. The hosts and team are very friendly. The apartments are nice and pretty clean. I do always prefer them when I need to stay in the city. I suggest all the guests to have this experience with Istanberry. Also they have a nice coffe place there, you can visit it to relax and have a lunch. We will be back for sure. Thanks for everything 😊

The second stay at Istanberry apartments (keep checking different ones each time), feels like visiting friends now 😊 no complaints at all, everything was good, just be aware of the high stairs if travelling with huge bags (I had no issues, my bags were light)

Exquisite
Pros:

The location of the apartment is truly a standout feature. Nestled near İstiklal Street, one of Istanbul's most vibrant and iconic thoroughfares, the apartment offers a prime spot for exploring the city's rich cultural and entertainment scene. The proximity to numerous shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions made the stay incredibly dynamic and filled with excitement.

One of the major conveniences of this apartment is its accessibility to the heart of Istanbul's bustling life. İstiklal Street, known for its lively atmosphere and diverse offerings, is just a stone's throw away. Whether I was strolling through the historic streets, enjoying local cuisine, or immersing myself in the vibrant nightlife, the apartment's location added immeasurable value to my overall experience.

The apartment itself is a haven of comfort and style. Thoughtfully designed and furnished, it exuded a cozy ambiance that enhanced my overall sense of relaxation. The amenities provided were modern and of high quality, ensuring that the stay was both enjoyable and hassle-free.

The hospitality of the hosts was exemplary. From the moment of booking to the end of my stay, the communication was seamless, and any queries were promptly addressed. Highly Recommended
