The apartment was also. I missed my flight from my previous destination to Istanbul. Gurkan was really helpful in rearranging my transfer to the apartment. Upon arrival we met Harkan who works there and he was so helpful. He assisted us with our luggage to the top floor. My old mother and young kids didn't mind the walk up as the apartment was so nice and comfortable and the view of the blue mosque and sea was so beautiful. Harkan also gave us good deals when we bought things at their shop. He and he was really . We stayed here for 5 days and 4 nights. Everything was perfect from the day we arrived. Mr Gurkan, Mr Furat and Mr Hakan was really really helpful. The studio apartment was very comfortable, modern and complete with a cooker, washing machine, flat screen satellite tv and etc. The studio is just merely steps away from the Blue Mosque and in fact we can see the Blue Mosque from the sliding patio doors. Very highly recommended for any travellers coming to Istanbul. A very lovely experience for us . Loved it! I took a studio on the last floor, with a terrace on hagia sophia and another on the sea! It's got all the commodities of a hotel, with the piece of mind of a private place. I was on my own, the staff was lovely, looked after me, and gave me good deals in their shop (annexed to the hotel). Basically, if you are like me and enjoy some privacy, or if you've been in hotels too long and had enough, this place is ideal. At the same time, the location is just perfect. Can't get lost. I reco. The owner Mr. Gerkin was very helpful and honest, he can speak English fluently which was very helpful. He arranged for us room in the ground floor based on our request. He arranged a free bus from the airport. In many times we seeked help from him and he was good advisor for us. Also he kept our baggage for few days for free while we were in Trabzon. Mr. Hakem is very helpful as well. I would recommend this hotel strongely. Fantastic location just behind the Blue Mosque and a short walk to all attractions in the old part of Istanbul. There are many shops and restaurants nearby. Plenty of room in the bedrooms. It was good to have breakfast included, although the apartment also had its own facilities. Unlike some other reviewers we loved the muezzin calls even at 4am - it's all part of the experience. Staff were helpful. The staff was SO helpful! They helped us with groceries, set up a cruise on the Bosphorus, and arranged airport pickup. Every time we visited their store they had wonderful apple tea for us! The apartment was clean, very comfortable and just large enough for five. Cooking was possible, but the kitchen could use a few more items. Best of all was the location...in the heart of the old city!. We were looked after very well by the staff and would recommend highly to other visitors. The location was excellent. The apartment was very clean. They offered an airport transfer which was reasonably priced and efficient. We were there in January and the heating was excellent. Could see the blue mosque from our room. Thank you for showing us around and being very helpful during our visit. The apartment was spacious and clean in an excellent location. The owners went out of their way to help us find our way around Istanbul. The apartments are a 10min walk to all the sites: Blue mosque, Hagia Sophia and the Grand Bazaar. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone planning a trip to Istanbul!. The location was perfect and walking distance to all the tourist attractions. Lots of restaurants and shops everywhere. Beds were very comfortable and apartment was cleaned once during our stay and new towels provided. The staff were very helpful and made us feel very welcoming :) especially Hakan. Would definitely return. I like everything . The apartment was very clean,the owner and staff mr gurkan n team was very nice and help us to arrange airport transfer and bosphorus trip with very reasonable price.value for money, comfortable stay, we cook everyday ,the location is very close to blue mosque,hajasofya,topkapi palace n tram station. This is a brilliant hotel in Istanbul. I will recommend it to everyone. We stayed in apartment 1, which could sleep 7. Everything was new and clean and very comfortable. It took us about 3 minutes to walk to the blue mosque room here, so it's ideally located. Free wifi and great staff were a big plus. People, who were working at Flamingo were extremely helpful relating to everything. The apartment has a lot of space (we booked for 3 persons,but get apartment for 6 persons). Location is perfect, since you can reach all important places in the town on foot within several minutes. - Amazing location right by the Blue Mosque, just where you want to be. - Plenty of space with two bedrooms and a total of 5 beds. - Nice bathroom and kitchen. - Incredible host who made sure everything was great including airport transport and restaurant recommendations. It was our first time to visit Istanbul and we found it amazing, Grkan and Harkan were so friendly and helful in all aspects we were so comfortable to deal with them and they were so extremly nice ..... We will never forget you guys and your nice shop as well. Very good location, within reach of public transport. Excellent service by Mr Hakan Cimen, showed us the places to shop for our groceries and shortcuts to the Blue Masjid. Also many thanks to Mr Firat Ozguler who extended his service to us too. Very nice hotel location. The perfect place for traveling with a family of 3, 4 children. A very beautiful city. There are a lot of entertainment (historical buildings, museums and parks) for adults and children. Friendly staff. We stayed in the top floor apartment which had excellent views of the Blue Mosque and the Sea of Marmara. The apartment was very clean and comfortable and our host was very helpful. We would certainly return. I really liked that it was private no reception room in the way because we were constantly in and out during our stay. It was close to the blue mosque and most all the main attractions were short walk away. The rooms are spacious for family trip, helpful staff, simple interrior but comfortable. It is much better to ask the staff to call for taxi or van as it is much cheaper and efficient. Location is great. Every thing is around you. You just need to walk into the history of Istanbul. Apartment was very clean and new stuff are there. It was also very safe for families. The apartment is quite spacious and perfectly located for discovering old city center. The owner is very friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed drinking coffee on the balcony... I really had good and safe stay, I take this opportunity to thanks all the Flamingo’s staffs and especially to Mr. Gurkan as he was very friendly and help full all the time. Flaming a was very close to all the sightseeing places. It was a safe environment and the friendly staff couldn't be faulted. We even got a free transfer from the airport. I loved the location. Steps to everything and absolutely fabulous restaurants basically right next door. The view from the roof was magical. the apartment just behind the blue mosque..very good location..there are market nearby and all the staffs are very helpful too!. Friendliness of staff, their will to help and ensure our experience was good. Excellent location, hand for everything. It was good Apartment with sea view and view on the blue mosque .clean room The staff was helpful espcially mr. Hakan. I staid for 5 days, the location was excellent and the staff also helpful. the studio was clean. Great location, perfect for seeing all of the sights. Owner was very helpful. The location is excellent: close to several important touristic points. friendly staff,very comfortable bed. Location, view, balcony, terrase. Clean, brilliant location. The location is just 4 minutes walk to the Blue Mosque. Gorkan was nice to call me before I landed to arrange hotel transfers and was very considerate to give us early checkin. They also helped us in loading luggage into our car at checkout. Good for the money. Location. This is not exactly a hotel, it's a rental building. So housekeeping was not automatically everyday, you need to request for it. It didn't have a washing machine. Although this might not be a problem if you are staying for a couple of nights, it might be necessary for longer stays "6 days & above". These are minor drawbacks that didn't affect our experience much. The apartment is next to school, which might not be suitable for those who will not wake up early. Forutunately our stay was during school holiday. Curtains in triple bedroom need to be stronger as there is a street light directly outside. Lounge area a little small, although we didn't spend much time in the apartment. We had 6 people but it would have been perfect for 4. The only downside is the smell in the bathroom. Not the apartments fault but think it is just the general sewage smell in Turkey as i have been Turkey 3 times and the bathroom always smells. The plugs in one room didn't work, and the main bedroom door didn't latch properly. Minor maintenance issues that should be rectified soon. - Call to prayer is really, really loud but we just went back to sleep. - There is a street light right outside the master bedroom window but we still slept like rocks from all the walking. 82 stairs to reach the apartment, but worth it for the views. Well it wasn't mentioned that there was a school right next to the apartment and we were staying on the ground floor so the kids could peer in and every half hour there would be school bell that would go off especially when you are trying to have a lye in. Life would have been much easier if there was gas cooking appliance rather than electric. The cleaning was not daily. No complaints. I would recommend it to my friends. Accommodation was a bit basic. No elevator. the bathroom was old and the beds was weak. any child could break it. Kitchen could have had more utensils. We arranged the transfer from the airport to the apartment with Flamingo apart, which seemed very convenient. However when we came out nobody was waiting for us. We waited for more than half an hour until somebody arrived. On the other hand for the transfer from the apartment to the airport they were very punctual. No dining table. Area looked a little like a bomb site, but still safe and friendly. Just one bathroom for a six bed place. A place like this should have atleast two. There is no 24 hour staff for the apartment and the breakfast is not included in room rate making the place slightly more expensive. Room gets cleaned once in 4 days. Was being charged 25Euro for private hotel transfers from ataturk airport whereas best price was 18Euros. Noisy during the day. Bit tatty, not cheap. - Staff's attitude and behavior - Mr.Gorken was not only inefficient he was also extremely rude. - General Admin - No one answers telephone, no concept of any sort of cleaning service coupled with broken washroom was the highlight of my stay.
