Our history on accommodation business:
We had started this business on March 2008 with only one flat. Now we have 3 apartments in the same building, the Zeki Pasa. We had hosted 300 people all over the world. UK, Belgium, Holland, Ireland, Scotland, France, Spain, Greece, Hungary, Sweden, Iran, Iraq, South Africa, New Zealand, South Africa, Morocco, Australia, Korea, Croatia, Norway, Taiwan, Dubai, and US. But they were one and only. Because we promote our flats in European based web sites. Now we are in HomeAway and hope it works.
We offer not only the accommodation, but friendship, hospitality, interest and smiles. Because we love to meet people around the world and help them to understand a different culture. And also we may understand other cultures by talking too. We all are mirrors to each other. Every culture is related and connected. We are one. To travel is the most important opportunity to understand that. We just separated with languages but connected by humanity.
The neighbourhood:
The street was my play ground when I was a child. We had been playing football on the street 20 years ago . It was an old Greek and Italian neighborhood and street had looked like huge for us, the children of the quarter. Then it had changed. Last Greek and Italian neighbors had died or left the street, new one had come without adaptation. And the street has lost its spirit. 6 years ago an investor has come, and organized people to own or hire the buildings and transform the area into an entertainment street. Now we have lots of cafes and restaurants in the street and a lively life. Especially on summer weekends it could be really crowded.
Our guests always like this liveliness and ambiance, But our most important advantage is the location. You can walk everywhere a tourist should visit in Istanbul. Bosphorus, Eminonu, Dolmabahce, Topkapi Palace, Grand Bazaar, Istiklal Street. Of course these are not the only place you can head to. You should come and see.
The feeling of our property:
Like I've written we have 3 apartments in the building for this business. But because we don't see it's a business for us, we would like our guest to feel at home like we feel, when they are here. We decorated the flat as our home, and don't stop to change to make it more comfortable. I assure you feel like home. The decoration is touchy. We painted the floor white, because it should be lighted. There are close building around our one, so, before we painted the floor white, the apartment was shady. Now it is full of light day and night. The kitchen is full of equipment to cook and dine. The rooms are not narrow and offer enough space. Those all I can say about our place, I hope you'll experience it and feel at home thousands of miles away of home.
