We stayed at Susan’s place for a month, and had a really great time. Apartment is well stocked for a family, it’s clean and comfortable, cozy. In the heat of the summer, it was fantastic to get some respite in the shade and walk out into the garden at the back for fresh air. Location is unbeatable, great coffee shops and restaurants around, as are supermarkets. It’s also really close to good museums and parks, overall a fantastic base to stay during a visit to Istanbul!
