This apartment was absolutely wonderful. Check-in was a breeze, as my friends and I promptly received the keys from Alexis' dad. We thoroughly enjoyed such a clean, centrally located apartment. The place was extremely clean and smelled wonderful every time we walked into the apartment. The bay windows provide a great view of the street and wonderful natural light. We were close to the bustling Taksim Square (15 minute walk) but far enough that we heard no noise at night. We felt very safe (the sturdy door had an even sturdier lock) and highly recommend Alexis' apartment.
