forest villa, 6 minutes from the airport

The host was very generous and caring. He went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed. The villa was clean, comfortable and peaceful, surrounded by forest, and only minutes from the airport, which made my arrival so easy. I felt welcomed and looked after the whole time. Highly recommend, and I'd happily stay again!

Location

Everything was great! Great location, great host, wonderful breakfast, The room is exceptional. I really enjoyed my stay. I will come again while in Istanbul.

There is nothing I didn't like. One thing only - beware of Istanbul's taxi drivers. They might fool you.

The thing I liked is the proximity to the airport (IST) However, I didn't use the service because I didn't realise I was flying into the other airport (SAW) and it is too far away for this airport.

1st, before I realised my reservation mistake, I agreed to pay €20 with the driver for pick up at night and drop off in the morning. 2nd, also before realising my reservation mistake, the host tried to change the terms of our agreement for pick up and drop off. He wanted to charge me €20 each direction! The house is a 5 minute drive from IST. The apartment was only €11. This is Turkey, the costs are not nearly this high. Then, when I told the owner he was going back on the agreement after showing the messages, he then started to swear at me. DO NOT HIRE THEM FOR PICK UP AND DROP OFF 3rd, after I realised my mistake, I explained to him that I was at SAW and I no longer needed the room, but I was willing pay because it was my mistake. He told me my money was no good to him and he continued to swear at me.
