“We have just returned from a great exchange with these family in Istanbul. Their flat was lovely and light and it was a perfect space for our family of four. Their home is in a quiet location on the Asian side, but it was also quite easy to reach the main tourist destinations on the European side using public transit. Sebnem and her family were great hosts and also great guests leaving our flat in perfect condition. Highly recommended!”

Sebnem's reviews
As a host (2)“Our visit in Istanbul was highlighted by the opportunity to stay in the home of Sebnem and Rauf Karaman. Sebenem met us at the airport and gave us a tour of the area so we could find our way around. She coached us about public transportation (bus and ferry) and gave us lots of information about the city. Later we had a delightful visit with the whole family. They stayed with relatives while we used their home for a week. The comfortable, spacious apartment is located on the Asian side of Istanbul in the Atashier distict. Two grocery stores are within walking distance as is an ATM. We met many gracious Turks on the bus and the ferry. We feel we got to know what life is like for the majority of people in Istanbul intermingled with learning about the historic parts of the city. The Karaman family will have the opportunity to use our California home for a week in the future. Date to be mutually decided. Louise & George Carter Nevada City CA”
