Booked a twin room in advance from Bulgaria when driving to Turkey from Europe in 2014, and the place was advertised as canal view with free on-site car parking which was important to us as we had our own vehicle. 
Upon arrival, we managed to find the place where it was located down a side street, not canal view! (unless this is the casual name for a turkish side street?). It was also immediately apparent that there was no on-site secure parking as advertised, still though we asked the owner whether he had somewhere to park for us or not. He pointed us to somewhere on the tiny side street. My friend moved the car whilst I checked out the room. The twin bed room we were offered was not as advertised  with barely any room to walk into the room! Whilst I was checking the room out my friend was confronted by a hostile local who said that we were parking on his space. As I went back to tell my mate about the room, he told me about the parking and that it wasn't going to work as we couldn't really park anywhere safely, where the vehicle would be secure. We also spotted drug dealers in the street. When we confronted the owner about his false advertising and informed him that due to this we would not be staying, he became increasingly aggressive, complaining about us to locals outside, telling us that we cost him other bookings etc and refusing to let us leave without paying him. We became fearful of him inciting the locals against us as we started to receive some hostility from the locals outside due to the owners rantings. Amidst the threat of possible damage to our vehicle we decided we would have to pay him but as we had just arrived in Turkey, we had not yet got any Turkish money and I had to head to a cash machine alone as he would not let my friend leave his hotel with me. I came back paid him and we left, but were then stuck for a place to stay in Istanbul with no idea where to go and night time approaching. Thankfully, we managed to locate a lovely hostel which made our stay fantastic. Particularly after this horrible man nearly ruined it!

Fraudster! Extorter! Falsely Advertised....Extorted us out of our money

I booked a two-room apartment on www.airbandb.com and paid in advance. When we arrived the host only offered one room with 1 double bed and 1 single bed, while on the website he explicitly mentioned 2 rooms with 2 beds each (4 single beds). The room is located in the basement, it is scary like a prison and smells of mould. The room doesn't have any proper window. The bathroom is very tiny and it is difficult to enter because the door is very small. The pictures shown on the website do not correspond to reality. Be aware of that; IT IS A FRAUD!!!! The car park the hosts offers is not an official parking space but he asked us to park on a rickety sidewalk next to the hotel, in a very unsafe and run down street, full of rubbish and sick dogs. When I made the reservation I paid 200€ for the apartment and 29€ for reservation fees and now the host says the apartment is no longer available. I asked for a full refund because the offer on the website was deceiving, but never got any. The host was very aggressive and made up excuses saying that the price was very convenient. We are two gentlemen and a lady and couldn't sleep all in one room (and especially not that kind of room). I feel deceived by the behavior of the host and I am disappointed because we had to go to another hotel and pay a lot of money. I never had problems with AirB&B in the past but I will not use the website again in the future: they charge you reservation fees and never help you when you are in need, as it was in my case.

STAY AWAY IT IS A FRAUD!!!!!

We arrived well after check in time and were told to come back in an hour as room wasn't ready. Went to pay with credit card (as advertised) and told only cash payment,  no card machines at all available. Yes and we got the top floor which was ok but wasn't cleaned in the 6 days we were there. No clean towels or restock of toilet paper ( basic stuff). After we were in the room I got an email saying my booking had been cancelled!!. location ok if you want an all night party. A long walk to sights. Area pretty dodgy at night. Do not recommend at all.

We did reserve the place with booking.com and after we got there they said we cancelled your reservation if you want to get new reservation will be more expensive. Also there was no name in the entrance so we had to walk around a lot just to find it.
Also the area is the worst in Istanbul. For your own good avoid it please.

Don't even think about it

First of all the address in booking system and google map dont match. After booking i wrote them 2 e- mail to get clear direction how to go there, but noone never answer. 
In my booking i wrote exactly my arrival time to Istanbul airport and the time when i hope i arrive to hotel. Also i add all my contact info, so was really easy to contact me. 
Anyways as it was so hard to find the place. We called 2 times on the way to hotel and let some local speak turkish with them to get idea how to go there.  First they promiese to come to take us. We wait one place like 25 minutes but noone come and called again.
Then they say they cant come. After all some local help us to find the place.
So in finally 2 hour later than we planned we arrive to hotel. Person working there help us inside and i gived him my reservation paper. He looked it and saied that my booking is cancelled.
I was shocked and ask why. He was so ignorant he just say  that because i was 2 hour late. I explane him that i have contact him by mail and also same day by phone, why he never say anithing. But he was so ignorant and didnt care absolutely. 
It was 23.00 in the evening, i was in the city what i dont know with our big luggages and no place to go. As i was there with my mother who is older person, i couldnt just belive something like this is possible.
I ask my booking money back but they didnt give me. So i ask what i need to do now, where i go now. He start to tell some places where is possible to go, but all these places where 2times more expensive then the place we booked.
But because of late night we didnt have any change and we had to go this other place.  But let me say it wasnt absolutely better even i cost double. The man working there take our luggages and start to run this other place what was in really dangerous area (even locals told us this later) I ask hime to walk slower as my mom was not able to run but hi didnt care. After all hostelsclub take this place out of their system because they where not able after all this terrible experiense even give me money back. 
So after all i have to say i never ever dont recoment this place. I have worked in hostels and i have traveled a lot. For me is ok to sleep in a friend floor when i travel but really when i go hotel i expect al least minimum respect.
