This is the third time that my wife and I have stayed in this house. The appartments are clean and well equiped. It was perfect for making breakfast in the morning or a snack in the evening. Other cooking is possible, but we didn´t do it.
The area is very charming. It is part of the old Greek quarter. It is now undergoing a restoration with lots of refurbished buildings. There is a great neighborhood feel here with older traditional shops and businesses next to trendier coffee houses and cafes. There are also many auction houses for antiques. The public transportation is a five minute walk and made for easy access to anywhere in the city.
Isil met us at the check in. gave us a tour of the neighborhood (showed us what´s new) and helped us organize our stay here. So from the first moment we felt welcome and with her help, our stay went smoothly and we had a great time.
One of the highlights for me was going running along the Golden Horn (three minutes from the appartment). It is a long flat strech (I went 12KM) with interesting historical and cultural sights along the way.
We come periodically to Istanbul and I certainly intend to stay here again and I can strongly recomend the appartments here to anyone visiting the city either for the first time or if you have been to Istanbul before.
