We had a great stay in Istanbul. Ilhan was very helpful, he waited for us at the apartment despite our late arrival.
Everything was as we expected from the pictures, the view was fantastic and the apartment itself was clean and we'll kept. The location is ideal: close to a tram stop with a direct tram to the main historic quarter (Sultanahmet), and also a short (but steep) walk to Istiklal. The local neighbourhood is very charming with lots of small shops and cafes to discover. Highly recommended, we just wish we could have stayed longer!
